about the only thing left that i can think of to try is to type in (a
simplified version of) one of the boot menu items at the grub prompt.
insmod gzio
insmod part_msdos
insmod ext2
set root='(hd0,msdos1)'
search --no-floppy --file --set=root /dev/sda1
linux /boot/vmlinuz-3.10-2-amd64 root=/dev/sda1 ro quiet
initrd /boot/initrd.img-3.10-2-amd64
if that works, it should get your system booted up - but not fixed.
before rebooting again, you should get to a root shell, check that
/etc/default/grub is OK, and either run grub-install or update-grub
again.
it sounds, though, as if there's a bug in the particular version of
grub you're running....it doesn't seem to know where to find its
configuration (grub.cfg), so re-installing or update-grub may not fix
the problem, and you won't know until you try to reboot again. you may
have to wait until LMDE releases an updated grub package.
or revert to the previous version of grub2 if you still have it available.
