I recently installed Lubuntu via a USB drive. It works great, but I have found one major problem. Upon booting up my laptop, it opens two one of two things.
The first is a Grub command line. If I simply type exit as a command, the laptop proceeds to a normal boot.
Sometimes, however, it will open up to the grub line, with an error message, saying it cannot find the kernel / the kernel is not defined. (I wish I could take screenshots but that is not an option for this problem.
I have tried changing the boot options in BIOS. I have tried a few suggested answers of setting the kernel proposed to similar questions. None of this has worked.
I assume this is an issue where I need to establish what my kernel is and have the machine boot from that. I don't know how though.
Overall my laptop works, and so it is not the most pressing issue, but I would like to fix it.
If anyone has any ideas on how to resolve this, I would be very grateful. Thanks! :)
EDIT 1:
Entered the command in the terminal sudo update-grub
Command succeeded.

Rebooted the computer several times to see if the same issue was present. Issue is still present, described below.
The error on grub appears like:
error: command failed
error: you need to load the kernel first
This can be circumvented by pressing 'c', entering the original grub menu, and entering the 'exit' command
sudo update-grubfrom a successful boot, reboot and test. Please edit the question and describe what you already tried and the result of my suggestion.
