    Hi

    Problem solved

    I removed grub and installed it again and now is updating ok. [​IMG] apt-get remove grub-common
    Code:
    apt-get remove grub2-common
    apt-get autoremove
    apt-get update
    apt-get upgrade
    apt-get install grub-common
    apt-get install grub2-common
    grub2-update
    apt-get autoremove removed libfuse2 and os-prober that was left after i removed grub-common. I do not know if that was necessary but after i removed them i did not have any errors when i was trying to upgrade.
