Can't boot up original host OS after installing and booting up LFS
by ProfSucrose from LinuxQuestions.org on (#5333X)
Hello!
I just finished the LFS book and was able to boot up the system successfully, however I can no longer boot up my host OS which I need to fix my broken GRUB config file.
Is there any way I can still boot up my original host system and interact with the LFS filesystem that way? I apologize if I'm being stupid, I'm not super experienced with Linux!
(I'm running this on VirtualBox and the host system was Ubuntu if that changes anything)
Thanks to anyone who responds!
