I have actually managed to work around it, but I will get back with that partition table 'cause I'm pretty sure something is wrong somewhere - still unable to get the distro installer to install grub, as it should. Using Ubuntu Linux. Was failing to get past the grub> prompt because I wasn't loading the initrd image. Did that and I was flying.
GRUBĀ ( GRand Unified Boot-loader) or is a very powerful multi-boot loader, which can load a wide variety of free operating systems, as well as proprietary operating systems with chain-loading. GRUB is designed to address the complexity of booting a personal computer. One of the important features in GRUB is flexibility; GRUB understands filesystems and kernel executable formats, so you can load an arbitrary operating system the way you like, without recording the physical position of your kernel on the disk. Thus you can load the kernel just by specifying its file name and the drive and partition where the kernel resides.
2) Now select Live CD, Open Terminal & type the following commands: root@kali:# blkid #use this command for checking name of ext4 partition in which previous linux installed root@kali:# sudo mount /dev/sdaX /mnt replace X with your drive number on which Ubuntu Kali (Linux OS) Installed Installing grub needs access of some directories, so we need to bind them one by one using command line for detecting previously installed operating system. Root@kali:# sudo mount -bind /dev /mnt/dev && sudo mount -bind /dev/pts /mnt/dev/pts && sudo mount -bind /proc /mnt/proc && sudo mount -bind /sys /mnt/sys.
