Hi Tim,

My guess:

- Turn everything off.
- Unplug the external USB drive.
- Turn the PC on.
- Expect GRUB to appear, offering your old installation.
- Select it.
- See if it boots it successfully.

That may depend on the style of GRUB installation set up by the
distribution.  If you have a /boot/grub/grub.cfg then that will have
‘menuentry { ... }’ entries matching what you see.
