[Liverpool] help with grub error on laptop

[Belalseman]

Hi Kari. I'm not sure what you mean by "grub error", as this could cover 
quite a few things. Do you get the grub menu even? If you do, that means 
we can access the recovery console and fix your issue that way. 
Otherwise, it looks like a job for a USB jump drive to boot into a copy 
of Linux and use grub repair tools that way. Please do get back with 
more info :)
