If you choose to continue, the window to reinstall GRUB will appear:
I selected it and got
Screenshot1 and when I selected install I ended up with the second screenshot which said everything was succesful but if you look at the third screenshot there is nothing in grub.cfg absolutely empty!!!
What happened??
And what will happen when I reboot???

Should I have made a backup first??

Re: [Boot-Repair] Graphical tool to repair the PC boot in 1 clic !
Hello
@Luke : good remark. Yes Boot-Repair creates a /clean folder in all OSs partitions. It contains logs and MBR backups, so I strongly suggest you don't remove it. The /clean folder is duplicated in all OSs partitions for security purpose. If really you want to remove it, you can do it from a live-CD or from your Ubuntu.
@JASONFUSARO : on your first attached screenshot, we can see that no OS was selected at the right side of "OS to boot by default" line. This probably means that os-prober did not detect any Linux on your computer. Please can you send me by email (yannubuntu att gmail dott com) a ZIP of your /var/log/clean folder ? (so that I can understand your situation and help you better)
Way Too Much Ubuntu
If you look closely I selected sda6 in the lower area and that folder does not exist, although I am looking in sda6 (UbuntuStudio64)
Now if you look at the second screenshot there is a clean folder but that is in my Toorox which is on sda10 (TooroxGnome64) but when I ran the Boot Repair I was running UbuntuStudio
The last Screenshot is my current partiton scheme
EDIT**
can you please explain:

Re: [Boot-Repair] Graphical tool to repair the PC boot in 1 clic !
Thank you Jason. According to the log, "os-prober" did not detect any OS. You can check if it is still the case by typing the following command, which should list your systems:
If you have time I would be happy if you could test next Boot-Repair's release which is nearly finished. (now v3 beta). I see you have a splendid multi-boot, so your feedback is very interestingCode:sudo os-prober
To install Boot-repair v3 beta:
(this also installs OS-Uninstaller v3 beta)Code:sudo add-apt-repository ppa:yannubuntu/boot-repair-dev && sudo add-apt-repository ppa:yannubuntu/os-uninstaller-dev && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get remove -y boot-repair-ubuntu boot-repair clean-ubiquity-common boot-repair-common os-uninstaller os-uninstaller-ubuntu && sudo apt-get install -y boot-repair os-uninstaller
To come back to Boot-Repair v2 stable:
Remark : before any test, be sure you have :Code:sudo add-apt-repository --remove ppa:yannubuntu/boot-repair-dev && sudo add-apt-repository --remove ppa:yannubuntu/os-uninstaller-dev && sudo add-apt-repository ppa:yannubuntu/boot-repair && sudo add-apt-repository ppa:yannubuntu/os-uninstaller && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get remove -y boot-repair-ubuntu boot-repair clean-ubiquity-common boot-repair-common os-uninstaller os-uninstaller-ubuntu && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install -y boot-repair-ubuntu os-uninstaller-ubuntu
- a backup of your data (as usual)
- a live-CD or live-USB of Ubuntu Secured, so you can easily reinstall GRUB.

**NOTE**
If you look at my Partition setup I am using GRUBBOOT partition as a dedicated boot partition.
This is where I modify grub.cfg
I would be happy to test it

this time os-prober worked without problem.
> It missed UbuntuStudio64bit which I am running right now
This is normal, os-prober does not show the OS in use.
Separate /boot partition is not taken in charge in Boot-Repair v2, but you are lucky : I added this feature in the v3 beta
You can try the v3, but don't validate if no OS is proposed as "OS to boot by default".
Concerning your last log, i see no problem. You can check that you have the last versions of packages by looking at https://launchpad.net/~yannubuntu/+a...-dev/+packages

Here is the run
2ndSS
It picked up running OS
I selected force grub into sda6 ss#4
which gave me this error ss#5
Not ebough room to upload another screen but it is of Boot Repair Please wait few second which is still running????
I shut it down and got the boot successfully repaired
I will check var/log and place another post

as I stated before this is the dedicated boot partition and no distro nor is it a linux partition it is 200 MB fat
I hope this stuff helps you and I am always willing to help or test something for you, I enjoy fixing things
I have to fix my grub and copy it back and I will look at the others to see if I find anything interesting
again please explain the following:
