Sir, wow I wasn’t expecting a real reply. After all I just downloaded a free iso.  Well it could be rooted in the fact that I have 3 distress on this system. Pun intended.😄  : Sda1 kali, sda2 ubuntustudio, sda3 linuxmint 17.1 each time I installed them I set them up at /.  I don’t yet know how to move manually where each should be under GRUB 2.02. Maybe that will help. Feel free to txt for faster response 817-219-3667 I’m daniEL

>  i guess i just got greedy and added too many programs.  I am very new and don't understand how to debug on my own.  System dependencies is bit out of my league right now. Will most likely reinstall from DVD that i downloaded and burned.  I do not recall if i MD5 this or not. So that may be and issue.  The problem did not start until i added a bunch of awesome toys.
