Try rebooting again and hold down the left shift key and choose recovery-mode and see if it can fix any broken packages.

no luck, holding left shift still took me to the command line interface, here is some more info about it, it starts with... "minamul BASH-like editing is suported, press TAB to see..." and the command line part before the > has the word GRUB

If you just boot up normal can you login to the shell? If so run:


sudo apt-get install --fix-missing

Or


sudo apt-get -f install

Or does it bring you to the grub> each time?
