Welcome to Manjaro! :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:

  1. Please read the information behind this link. It will help you to post necessary information. [HowTo] Provide System Information
  2. Please press the three dots … below your post and then press the :pencil2:
  • If you give us information about your system, we can see what we’re talking about and make better suggestions.
  • You can do this by using inxi in a terminal or in console.
inxi --admin --verbosity=7 --filter --no-host --width
  • Personally identifiable information such as serial numbers and MAC addresses are filtered out by this command
  • Presenting the information in this way allows everyone to be familiar with the format and quickly find the items they need without missing anything.
  1. Copy the output from inxi (including the command) and paste it into your post.
  • To make it more readable, add 3 backticks ``` on an extra line before and after the pasted text.

I cannot boot into my system.

can you boot on USB live manjaro ,
open a terminal and a browser on this topic and return

inxi -Fza
sudo parted -l

Okay , will do.

Here are some guides to help you retrieve information.

You’ll need to chroot into your system to retrieve the requested info. This should help:

To enter a chroot environment

  1. Ensure you’ve got a relatively new ISO or at least one with an LTS kernel.

  2. Write/copy/dd the ISO to a USB thumb drive.

  3. When done, boot with the above mentioned USB thumb drive into the live environment.

  4. Once booted, open a terminal and enter the following command to enter the chroot environment:

manjaro-chroot -a

If you have more than one Linux installation, select the correct one to use from the list provided.

If sucessfully done, you should now be in the chroot environment.

But, be careful, as you’re now in an actual root environment oon your computer, so any changes you make will persist after a restart and can cause damage.

And then I’m thinking you need to reinstall grub:

Reinstalling grub from chroot environment.

Once in the live environment, you have to reinstall GRUB. To do so, run the following:

update-grub

When successfully completed, exit the chroot environment:

exit

Followed by rebooting and seeing if it worked.

If it did, feel free to heap on the praise. If, however, it didn’t, well, then I’m not here.

Tip:

To provide terminal output, copy the text you wish to share, and paste it here, surrounded by three (3) backticks, a.k.a grave accents. Like this:

```
pasted text
```

This will just cause it to be rendered like this:

Portaest sed
elementum
cursus nisl nisi
hendrerit ac quis
sit
adipiscing
tortor sit leo commodo.

Instead of like this:

Portaest sed elementum cursus nisl nisi hendrerit ac quis sit adipiscing tortor sit leo commodo.

Thereby improving legibility and making it much easier for those trying to be of assistance.

Alternatively, paste the text in the editor, select the pasted text, and click the </> button in the editor toolbar.

Please edit your post accordingly.

Please format your post as described/linked above.

==> ERROR: No Linux partitions detected!```
11

Did I do that properly?

12

:point_up:

13

OK, I have to ask, where was your Manjarro installed previously? Because from this:

…it doesn’t look to be anywhere on that.

14

On a 120GB SATA SSD

15

…which doesn’t seem to be listed there…

16

so you have 3 disks ( if 4 , sdc is missing )

  • /dev/nvme0n1 Lexar 500GB SSD (nvme)
    GPT Basic data partition msftdata

there no /boot/efi here for windows
→ you should see for create one BY windows ( 100Mo )
→ flag with ESP and Boot

  • dev/sda Model: ATA TOSHIBA HDWD120 (scsi) 2000GB
    Sector size (logical/physical): 512B/4096B
    Partition Table: gpt in ext4 ( ok)

  • /dev/sdb ATA Crucial_CT275MX3 (scsi) Partition Table: msdos 275GB
    ==> before install , format in GPT , and create theses partitions
    /boot/efi with flag boot/esp ( fat32 - vfat 512Mo ) boot for linux only
    and others partitions you want

  • dev/sdd is your USB boot manjaro

you can redo your install , after
1 - on UEFI motherboard create 2 profiles ( save )
one for windows , 2nd for linux

for linux , you have to

  • no Secure boot
  • no Fast Boot
  • no CSM
  • no Legacy
  • all disks on AHCI
  • choose UEFI ( not windows )

before redo GPT and partitions on disk SSD ,
recheck before

inxi -Mxa
sudo efibootmgr -v
sudo parted -l
17

Oh, that’s weird, maybe I did something with the cable by accident. I’ll check.

18

I have 5 disks installed in my computer.
2 SATA SSDs
1 SATA HDD
2 PCI SSDs
Why some of them aren’t showing on the thing?

I don’t have Windows on my PC.

19

I didn’t find anything wrong with the cable.

20

I would remove and reseat and plug every storage device back in.
Some motherboards can also limit how many PCIe slots can be active at once. For example, on mine, populating the second M.2 slot disables one of the PCIe slots.

Your board’s specs has limitations, listed under Storage:
