[Bug 1851955] Re: ubuntu 19.10 boot installer failed

[Ian Scott]

Hi Steve

I'm at the library at the moment on another notebook but I'll be back in an
hour or so to try the new idea. However "nd then, could you try finishing
the
configuration of the grub package?"

Unfortunately I have no idea at all how to do this. Can you provide some
instructions Steve? I only use computers, mainly for math analysis and
simulations, but I have very little understanding of what goes on inside
the OS.

Ian
