I messed up. I know I did. The most in my whole life, it seems.
But here's the story.
I've got laptop, Lenovo g500. Windows 8 preinstalled. I wanted linux dualboot, naturally. Found the way to replace UEFI with Legacy booting system. And switched the fastboot off as well. Then I made linux flash disk and successfully installed. Well, without Ethernet support. Then I rebooted and didn't belive. Grub loaded and offered only linux distro and win recovery mode, which didn't boot at all. Linux distro without internet and no win access. It made me dessperate and I did the most stupid thing. Not quite sane I booted gparted flash and removed all three linux partitions. /home, boot and /swap. Grub cannot boot win, as I assumed from few sources I've read. Okay, I thought, now I boot to win, there's anything else to boot to. And then grub recovery mod appeared. I can't boot flash, because grub is faster.
I have no idea what to do from this point so I honestly appriciate any kind of help.
Grub rescue> ls
(hd0) (hd0,gpt7) (hd0,gpt6) (hd0,gpt5) (hd0,gpt4) (hd0,gpt3) (hd0,gpt2) (hd0,gpt1)
It there's anything I can do to fix it, I'd be very grateful. Looking forward for replies.
