My previous question How to install extlinux on Ubuntu 19.10? was closed as a duplicate with a link to similar topics. But there I did not find a solution to my problem. I apologize, but I have to ask for help again.

The software has booted. The next step was to install the bootloader. Detected that the Syslinux folder is located in / usr / lib / syslinux. Extlinux folder is not at all. To install the bootloader gave the command: sudo syslinux --install / boot / syslinux (the folder / boot / syslinux was created earlier) Error: sudo: / usr / lib / syslinux: command not found

He gave the command to copy the boot sector to a USB flash drive: dd if = / usr / lib / syslinux / mbr.bin of = / dev / sdd Again the error: dd: failed to open '/usr/lib/syslinux/mbr.bin': No such file or directory.

Tell me, please, what am I doing wrong?

  • "*Command not found*" implies that you have not yet installed the minimum software required for the task. For example, did you successfully install the `extlinux` package? Your previous question was closed with a link to instructions to [how to enable the universe repository](https://askubuntu.com/questions/148638/how-do-i-enable-the-universe-repository) so that you could install the correct packages, not 'similar topics'. – user535733 Jan 06 '20 at 17:17
  • Yes I did. Outwardly, everything was fine. There were no errors. Do you think the extlinux folder is missing due to my error? Okay, I'll try to repeat. – kservice Jan 06 '20 at 17:37
  • After running `sudo extlinux --install /boot/extlinux` the `Not a directory /boot/extlinux` error message has changed. In fact, there is such a directory. – karel Jan 07 '20 at 04:07
