-i tried to reinstall grub but it did't worke i had this in the terminal
ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ sudo mount /dev/sdb1/mnt
mount: can't find /dev/sdb1/mnt in /etc/fstab or /etc/mtab
ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ sudo grub-install --root-directory=/mnt /dev/sdb
/usr/sbin/grub-probe: error: cannot find a device for /mnt/boot/grub (is /dev mounted?).
ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ sudo update-grub
/usr/sbin/grub-probe: error: cannot find a device for / (is /dev mounted?).
ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ -i tried to renistall ubuntu a gain in a right steps but it didn't work .
