We are analyzing the problem and doing fixes and necessary updates for the next ISO release. Please be patient and sorry for the inconvenience.

for now is there any workaround to make my maui boot, because for me to download the new iso it can take a lot of time

ok so i figured i out. when i attempted to boot i would get the grub > prompt.

heres what you do. you must tell grub where to look for vmlinuz and initrd.img. luckily theres a symbolic link in / of your install drive
first identify where you installed to. in my case im on a laptop with a second hard drive on a usb controller. grub sees hard drives as hd0 hd1 hd2 etc in my case i have winblows 10 on hd0,2 this means the first drive second partition. i installed to the other drive so its hd1 and i went to partition 2 since the fat32 efi partition is the first. so forst command
grub > set root=(hd1,2) // this tells it what drive and partition//
next tell it where the kernel and initrd are
linux /vmlinuz
initrd /initrd.img
boot


when you get into x use one of the consoles and type the following
sudo update-grub

it will find all boot parts and images and set them in a new config menue for you

reboot and yer fixed. use the f12 menue to choose your os
