After suggestion to NOT using grub-customizer
and replace with grub-vanilla
have anyone some link for tutorial or how working , because i can’t find on net!
Thank in advance !
This does not sound right: grub-vanilla
is a replacement for grub
(not grub-customizer
).
Detailed steps how to install grub-vanilla
can be found in the archived forum:
I saw that and the only info i get is how to install it and no use of grub-vanilla on terminal or as qui .
I prefer use terminal to solve grub problem !
What is grub-vanilla anyway?
Read the first post in that thread…

I thing that is a great lesson for understand how configure grub
on system.
And forget about grub-[any]

I’m afraid you misunderstood what I told you on a different thread, so I’ll try clarifying in simple terms ─ one never knows who might stumble upon this thread here…
grub-customizer
is a tool for ─ you guessed it ─ customizing the GRUB boot loader. It is available from the Manjaro repository. However, one may only use grub-customizer
when one is using grub-vanilla
, which is the version of GRUB as it ships from its upstream developers.
And grub-vanilla
is also available from the Manjaro repository, but by default, Manjaro uses a heavily customized version of GRUB that is not compatible with grub-customizer
, and the use of grub-customizer
in combination with Manjaro’s already customized version of GRUB will break your system.
So the point was to install grub-vanilla instead grub ?
Why don’t tel so many days ago?

Thank you for your patience.
In what country?
All over the globe !!!
Hello,
Sorry if this is a newbie question, but can someone explain more about the difference between the packages ‘grub’ and ‘grub-vanilla’? By default it seems Manjaro is installing grub-vanilla and not grub, but after issues with grub-vanilla (failing to run grub-probe, see this which is unresolved for me, I switched to grub (uninstalled ‘grub-vanilla’ and installed ‘grub’) and all works fine.
But of course I want to know if this was a good idea!
Thanks for your explanation,
