and send the response? Can you also send a list of all the loaded modules?
grub> lsmod
If you have a rescue iso, it may be easier to boot from it, mount your disk, chroot to it, and then generate your missing grub.cfg file with grub-mkconfig and then reboot.
Hi Eric
generated the grub configure and this was the output;
