[Bug 1309625] Re: Xubuntu 14.04: Grub drops to rescue prompt with message: "error: symbol 'grub_term_highlight_color' not found."

[Phillip Susi]

You have several disk drives, some of which have broken installs of grub
on them.  You need to make sure that your bios is set to boot from a
drive with a correct install of grub on it.  You can use sudo dpkg-
reconfigure to select which drives should have grub installed on them,
and this will also reinstall a working copy to the selected drives.

Title:
  Xubuntu 14.04: Grub drops to rescue prompt with message: "error:
  symbol 'grub_term_highlight_color' not found."

Status in “grub2” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  At first boot after a fresh install of Xubuntu 14.04, Grub goes to the
  grub-rescue prompt with the message "error: symbol
  'grub_term_highlight_color' not found."

  I tried to do a grub-reinstall as described on this page:
  https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2/Installing. I tried the
  rescue-prompt method and the live-CD method.

  I installed Xubuntu with the ' something else' partitioning method on
  an system with 2 ssd's; one for Windows, and one for Xubuntu and two
  hdd's; one with Windows files and one with my /home directory.

  I tried to install the GRUB bootloader both SSD's, with the same
  results. I also tried the option to replace Xubuntu during the
  installation process.
