no. when you boot, you are presented with a list of kernels. one of them is a rescue.

It never got to the point where I could select anything to boot. I didn't have a lot of time so I just reinstalled the OS but kept the old home directory. Everything seems fine

People's minds were blown when I'd change the distribution their computer ran on, and everything looked and ran the same way afterwards. I was always sitting there thinking "This is how it's supposed to work."
Also, you may want to increase the timeout for grub. The default is short enough that you don't always see the menu when running as a VM.

It's a physical machine, desktop. Yeah I've never actually done it that way before this but logically it made sense. For some reason SMB isn't working for him and he is unable to browse his windows network shares. Connected to the domain and samba is installed.
