found your vmlinuz, do this

Code:

umount /boot/efi
mount /dev/sda1 /boot
grub-install --target=x86_64-efi --efi-directory=/boot
grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg

worked so far so good.

give me 30 min (downloading a game atm) and i have only 1 Ethernet cable + no Wifi.

it works but after entering my pw in Login-DE it says starting "version Arch..."etc in GRUB like a normal boot in any other Arch bootup and then 1 second later it throws me back to the Login-DE
not sure if it has to do with the meanwhile useless GRUB install (Pic1) since its on the same disk or not since boot priority is on the functional bootloader (Pic2)

I don't think it has anything to do with the nonworking grub.

Are you saying it goes back to the arch grub login menu? Maybe something wrong with the menu entry. post the /boot/grub/grub.cfg

Then

Code:

less /boot/grub/grub.cfg

colorpurple21859 · 09-25-2020, 04:23 PM

cat /mnt/boot/grub/grub.cfg | less
Need the First line that starts with menuentry plus the next several lines that follows to this }

It is further down, will look like this
menuentry “arch”...{
set root=...
......
..,.....
linux /vmlinuz ...,
Initrd /initramfs ...
}
