After a motherboard repair, the option to boot into manjaro has dissappeared

Is that inside the ESP( /dev/nvme0n1p2 ) or the 6th partition? :thinking:

Thats just inside the /mnt/boot/efi like you asked before

That is very strange because:

are identical in that caseā€¦

Due to real life (Itā€™s 22:32 here) iā€™m handing the resolution to @stephane if you donā€™t mind.
Else i can continue in morning my timeā€¦

Okay thanks a lot and have a good night !

error in path it should be /boot/efi/EFI/

efibootmgr -c -d /dev/sdX -p N -L "manjaro" -l "\EFI\Manjaro\grubx64.efi"
efibootmgr -v

I donā€™t understand what do you mean by that

@stephane, the path is correct from the point of view of the ESP, it should not start with the lowercase efiā€¦

@koebelt, you seem to have lost your UEFI entry for Manjaroā€¦
See the difference of the output you provided, above:

This entry was lost:

Boot0000* manjaro       HD(1,GPT,12db9e9d-3025-438a-8b25-02648e6fe6f2,0x800,0x108800)/File(\EFI\Manjaro\grubx64.efi)

Can you provide the complete output of:

  • sudo fdisk -x
  • ls -la /dev/disk/by-uuid
  • ls -la /dev/disk/by-partuuid

Hello back ! Sorry for the delayā€¦
Here the output of the commands :

Ok looking at the combined output of those it seems that either one of us made a mistakeā€¦

Which means your UEFI-entry was pointing to partition 1 instead of 2 as intended, soā€¦

  1. Start your Live media iso of Manjaro.
  2. Open a terminal
  3. Execute: sudo systemd-mount /dev/nvme0n1p6 /mnt
  4. Execute: sudo manjaro-chroot /mnt
  5. We will skip the step to remove the old UEFI-menu entry because you already seem to have lost that oneā€¦
  6. Execute the efibootmgr line that @stephane gave with modifications, like this:
    sudo efibootmgr --verbose --create --disk=/dev/nvme0n1 --part=2 --label=ā€œManjaro Linuxā€ --loader="\EFI\Manjaro\grubx64.efi"
  7. Check the created entry to be sure that it is using the 68d20e24-1153-45e6-8997-64bf6db004f3 partition with:
    efibootmgr --verbose
  8. Reboot into your system, it should now boot into Manjar because that was last added to the UEFI-menu entriesā€¦

Okay it finally works ! I tried to reboot several times into windows and manjaro and it still works just fine !
Thanks a lot to both of you @TriMoon and @stephane !
The mistake was probably on my side, sorry for wasting your time :sweat_smile:
