[merry tusk]

This is not a fresh install. No dualbooot either

[smoky seal]

did u change BIOS recently?

[merry tusk]

No

[smoky seal]

power failure?

[merry tusk]

No

[smoky seal]

boot the Mint live usb up and use the disks app to filesystem repair the linux partition and efi partition

[merry tusk]

Wait how would I know about power failure

[smoky seal]

then run boot repair tool.

[merry tusk]

I'll have to try that in a few min

I'll let you know how that goes

Wait I don't see that option

[smoky seal]

U booted live and opened Disks app, @merry tusk ?

[merry tusk]

I don't know how to get there

Is that a UEFI thing?

[smoky seal]

[merry tusk]

Ok

Then what?

[smoky seal]

Disks

pick each of the two partitions i said before

and the gear icon, 'check filesystem'

[merry tusk]

Ok

One of the partitions need repairing

One of the options is to repair

[smoky seal]

The ext4 one?

do it.

[merry tusk]

Ext4 yes

[smoky seal]

then check the efi one

[merry tusk]

Undamaged

[smoky seal]

ok. after repairing the one that needed it, just try booting

and if still doesnt work, boot live again, and then use the boot repair application.

[merry tusk]

Works now. Thank you!
