Hello, I am fairly new with linux and such and the computer (desktop) I have was running Linux Mint 17 KDE. I have no idea as to what happened or why it happened but after turning the computer off overnight, then turning it on this morning it boots but ends up at the Grub> screen. I did alittle research on grub and all that and found Boot Info Script and followed the directions to get it and now I have no idea really what to do with the info , so i was hoping to post it here and see if i could get some help or interpretation , lol.
Boot Info Script e7fc706 + Boot-Repair extra info [Boot-Info 31Jan2013]
