Another possibility is that this is a UEFI system and the firmware is loading the wrong NVRAM entry. Use the efibootmgr -v command to list all of the boot entries. Check for /sys/firmware/efi to confirm that the system is booted in UEFI mode. See https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Un … t_efivarfs if the NVRAM variables cannot be listed even if the box is booted in UEFI mode.

apt install update && apt install upgrade
and reboot the laptop I find the black screen with the grub> label.

I can access the distro after performing the following commands:
grub> set root=(hd1,gpt2)
grub> linux /boot/vmlinuz-*********** root=/dev/sda2
grub> initrd /boot/initrd.img-**********
grub> boot

I try to install-reinstall grub (as I was able to do on other occasions) by doing:
sudo update-grub (also tried sudo update-grub2)
sudo grub-install /dev/sda

But when I restart I get the grub> label again.
