    Hello

    I have a problem with GRUB after installing Linux Mint 19. I fixed 3 partitions: root, home and swap. Before installing, I get a message:

    GRUB Error: Fixing Linux Mint 19 Installation Issue on Multiple Partitions (Root, Home, Swap)

    The installation is successful, the computer restarts and another message is:

    GRUB Error: Fixing Linux Mint 19 Installation Issue on Multiple Partitions (Root, Home, Swap)

    This is not my first Linux on my computer because I tried many versions, but after installing Mint, this message pops up every time. How can this be fixed?

    From what you can see, you probably want to choose Windows and Mint 19 and Windows is installed in UEFI mode - a similar problem as here: https://www.elektroda.pl/rtvforum/topic3404462.html#16864421

    The Mint 19 64-bit installation media also needs to be started and installed in UEFI mode ...

    Added after 1 [minutes]:

    BTW:
    If such a window with a countdown appears just after starting, the Mint has been launched in Legacy mode (you need to press something to show the menu):
    GRUB Error: Fixing Linux Mint 19 Installation Issue on Multiple Partitions (Root, Home, Swap)

    and such is UEFI:

    Ok thanks a lot. This could actually be the solution. I'm just gonna try it and see if it works :)

    I installed in UEFI mode and everything works fine. Thanks for the advice. One more question, would I be able to properly install Linux into Legacy mode? And how is it any different from each other?
