Black screen no Grub/chroot- voltage

Hello, I don’t need help but have been having a bizarre intermittent issue with black screen boots. For whatever reason fully removing(safely) all voltage from the pc for about a minute solves the problem(shutdown then removing power plug). Couldn’t tell you why, but wanted to give another possible temp solution for anyone else experiencing this.

Welcome to the Manjaro community.

Shutting down a computer for a few minutes can sometime appear to work micacles in a variety of situations; however is generally not a solution for anything.

Nonetheless, thanks for your eagerness to share.

If you don’t need any help, in future please post in a category other than Support. I have in the meantime moved this thread to Feedback while Moderation Staff decide its ultimate fate.
