Hello,

When I tried to perform the last upgrade, I received the following message:

The last entry in the boot menu is my Windows 10 installation. It originally read Windows 7; but I edited the label to read Windows 10 in "grub-customizer." I ultimately had to kill grub-mount with "sudo kill -9 15573."

Also, "grub-mount" is using 50% processor capacity and hangs. Repeated attempts to correct this do not work.

Any help appreciated.

Thanks, Hannibal
