Help, I installed Ubuntu 15.04 alongside my Windows 8 and all I can see now is the grub menu. My laptop has always displayed the boot menu after the Toshiba Logo.
When I select the HHD/SSD it displays the black screen with "grub>".
When I select the USB it displays the black screen with "grub>".
On either screen type "boot" it tells me I need to loads the kernels first.
when I type "exit" it takes me back to the boot menu.
I have made a new (my 30th one) Bootable USB with Ubuntu 15.04. I am typing this from withing the system, please help. I've been unable to boot windows since January 2nd, 2016.
