Newbie trying to do fresh install. Grub problems.
by BigWyrm67 from LinuxQuestions.org on (#6FQ1C)
System specs:
CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 2600
GPU: AMD RX 6700 XT
Motherboard: X470 AORUS ULTRA
Heres what Im trying to do:
I have 2 SSD's. One has Windows 7 on it and I want to keep that as it is. The second has linux Mint installed on it. I decided to try Garuda Linux as I think that might be better for gaming than linux mint. I flashed a USB with Garuda Dragonized Gaming Edition using Rufus. I tried to boot using the usb but keep getting "symbol grub_calloc not found, entering recovery mode".
What am I doing wrong? I want to replace the Mint with Garuda but cant even get through grub. Is there a way to bypass this or a work around? Maybe a way to delete the Mint SSD from the Win 7? Any advice appreciated. Im kinda stuck here :/
