System Info: **Secure Boot & Fast Boot: Disabled** Summary Operating Systems: Windows 10 Pro 64-bit/Ubuntu 16.04 64-bit CPU Intel Core i7 4790 3.60GHz 38 Â☌ Haswell 22nm Technology RAM 16.0GB Dual-Channel DDR3 780MHz (9-9-9-24) Motherboard ASUSTeK COMPUTER INC. I had hoped to describe the problem in three short paragraphs but hopefully the above Clarification provides the details Android Dev requested. I'd like to either capture GRUB2 in the disk image (and be able to reinstall it via image) or find another way to backup GRUB2 so I don't have to reinstall Linux every time I have to restore a backup image of Win10 or Linux.Īpologies for the lengthy post. This is the problem - GRUB2 disappears whenever I have to restore a backup os image. The only way I can get the original GRUB2 is to reinstall Linux from a live Linux usb onto disk0 ssd. So either GRUB2 is hidden somewhere such that the imaging software can't copy it or it needs something like command "grub-update" to reactivate it, idk. GRUB2 (and Linux) is installed on disk0 (MBR) but, my understanding, is that part of GRUB2 is also on disk3's EFI System Partition. Despite reinstalling images for BOTH OS images (Win10 on NVMe C:\ (disk3) and Ubuntu on N:\ (disk0) GRUB2 cannot be restored. Since I installed Ubuntu 16.04 I began dual booting. When I need to restore an OS I boot from a WinPE usb or USBLinux and install an image from an image (MR) file in order to restore the drive to a previous condition. I backup all partitions on a ssd via imaging software - e.g., Macrium Reflect. Is there a better way to get GRUB2 back after an image restore? Tried backing up via EasyUEFI but this failed as well. This happens with Reflect, Acronis, and Lazesoft imaging software. Likewise, a "bare metal" restoration of N:\ drive (disk0 ssd) that has home and root partitions (SWAP on hdd) for Linux will not bring GRUB2 back.Ī re-installation of Linux is required to get GRUB2 back. Because it is a NVMe (e.g., instead of GRUB2 on sda1 it is on nvmeOn1p1) posted solutions will not work. Upon restoration of C drive (disk3) image GRUB2 menu disappears. A Macrium Reflect ("MR") backup image is created of all Win10 C:\ partitions (3 221GB GPT, 99MB FAT32, 451 Unallocated). So I have GRUB2 (v2.02 beta 3.6ubuntu3.9)working on a dual boot (each os has own hdd) Win10/Ubuntu 16.04 UEFI PC.
