Yes, that brought back an entry, but it booted right into the
Dell maintenance application. For laughs I changed the statement
to point to partition 2 (the ext4 partition) and tried again.
It went to the maintenance app again.
The ext4 partition appears to be my boot partition. It contains
the following. I looked because I was looking to find
/boot/efi/EFI/BOOT/BOOTX64.EFI
somewhere. It's not in that partition/fs
So I also tried to mount sda1 that you mentioned, but that just hung the
mount command
with an eventual "Can't read superblock on /dev/sda1".
Have I reached a dead end, and am stuck with a re-install now?
