I have HP Pavilion laptop (hard disk is of 1TB and RAM of 8GB). Legacy support is enabled while secure boot is disabled. It is dual booted with Windows 10 and Ubuntu 16.04. While working on the Ubuntu OS, I deleted some cache files in the var folder in order to get some space and probably it messed up the boot-loader somehow ( I am not sure if that is the reason). But currently, I am unable to boot into either of the two operating systems.
Now, while trying to boot-repair the system, I got the following alert -
GPT-detected. Please create a bios boot partition error. Alternatively, you can retry after activating the [Separate / boot/efi partition] option.
I chose the latter option and the boot-repair continued resulting in the following alert -
Please close all your package managers
Ultimately, I got a boot-repair error dialog box with the pastebin link and the following message -
Please do not forget to make your BIOS boot on sda1/EFI/grub/shimx64.efi file
But while there are 3 different options in the Boot Options menu, none of them works.
The boot info summary is at http://paste.ubuntu.com/p/nzrZ3TX6GY/.
I will be truly grateful if I can have some help in solving this booting problem and having the system back to normal.
