I’m sorry, is this some joke I’m too atomic to understand?

Can’t relate, arch testing never broke in years. Without manual maintenance.

If it where arch, but its manjaro. Somehow during the last kernel update the grub info was not changed to point to the current kernel names…still pointed at the old kernel…and that had been replaced. After figuring all that out in chroot, fix was as simple as changing a single line in that grub file

Yet another Majaro L? Not one to dunk on random distros, but I’ll always make an exception for Manjaro

Only the morons that turn on AUR despite being warned against it ever have problems on Manjaro.

The dangers of relying on a prebuilt system which is maintained … lets just say not state of the art.

Also, would grub-hook be an option?

Grub-hook is what I use to prevent this exact situation.

Do y’all only have one kernel installed?

Yes. If I ever need something else because something unforeseen happened (which has not happened for years, and I use a non-default one), I can boot up from a live USB and fix things.

I use arch btw.

I also use Arch btw. I have an lts kernel installed just in case. Came in handy when the amdgpu driver was broken for a week. The screen was flashing on Wayland.

Reminds me of that time I updated my UEFI firmware which automatically re-enabled secure boot which caused my Nvidia driver to fail to load on boot because Nvidia doesn’t sign them so I was stuck with the noveau(spelling?) driver which would crash when I tried to log into my DE. What an adventure figuring that out was. Oh, and the cherry on top: updating the firmware didn’t fix the initial issue I was troubleshooting.

Ugh, I just went through the same thing last week. Let’s just say that checking if secure boot had been turned back on was NOT one of the first 500 things that came to mind during troubleshooting.

Exactly. I was about to rip my hair out before I thought to check my UEFI settings.
