Hello Ivan, |
| 20 |
I had just yesterday exactly the same problem, not because my laptop |
| 21 |
runs out of battery, but because of full system update. I do it only |
| 22 |
once a week. Anyway. |
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
I could fix it in the following way: |
| 25 |
- Switch off your laptop and wait some seconds. |
| 26 |
- Start your laptop |
| 27 |
- Boot your kernel, you have to imaging on which position in the |
| 28 |
boot menu this one is |
| 29 |
- after the machine is up and running |
| 30 |
- emerge -av grub |
| 31 |
- reboot and it should be fine |
| 32 |
|
| 33 |
That's it. |
| 34 |
|
| 35 |
Hope I could help |
| 36 |
