I set up Windows 10 beside an Ubuntu installation, but now I can’t start GRUB anymore—it jumps straight into Windows.

The partitions appear damaged. Windows 10 likely replaced the GRUB setup. Try booting from a live disk to restore it.

I previously attempted it but encountered an issue: cannot retrieve the canonical path for /cow.

I used the appropriate command to verify the setup. Everything appears to be mounted correctly.

The issue has shifted. I'm using grub-install /dev/sda and encountering an input/output problem.

Your setup uses either UEFI or BIOS, and the disk arrangement follows a specific layout.

Use a supergrub disc to access Ubuntu installation media.

It doesn't really matter. I just reinstalled Ubuntu and everything is working again.
