0/ I have the same problem. I tried to sudo manjaro-chroot -a an got this:
grub-probe: error: cannot find a GRUB drive for /dev/sdd1. Check your device.map.

Whether I type 0 or anything I get this message. I will be grateful for your help.
Here, you have to type 1
I’ve got exactly this same problem as reported by the users in this post.
I did sudo manjaro-chroot -a from a Manjaro live USB. Then trying: sudo pacman -Syyuu as suggested in this post.
This installed Kernel 5.9 (before the first update only 5.10 and 5.4 were installed). However, this hasn’t solved anything. Manjaro is now unable to boot from any kernel after the ‘stable’ update of 2020-12-30.
Any possible ideas or solutions?
Thanks
I tried and I got:
==> ERROR: You can't mount 1!
I managed to chroot manually. Then I reinstalled grub package: pacman -Syu grub
When I try to:
grub-install --target=x86_64-efi --efi-directory=/boot/efi --bootloader-id=manjaro --recheck
i get:
Installing for x86_64-efi platform.
grub-install: error: /boot/efi doesn't look like an EFI partition.
/dev/sda4 is formatted as fat32 and mounted to /boot/efi
Any idea how to resolve this?
@hxl, is your ESP really formatted in FAT32 (or FAT16 or even FAT12)? Does it carry the boot and ESP flag? Is the size at least 260 MiB? Do you have a gpt parted disk? Are you booting in UEFI mode? All that’s mandatory. Also, when you chrooting the mount point differs to /boot/efi, it’s most likely /mnt/boot/efi, this needs to be considered!
gpt. I was chrooting like this:
sudo mount /dev/sda2 /mnt/manjaro-root
sudo mount /dev/sda4 /mnt/manjaro-root/@/boot/efi
sudo manjaro-chroot /mnt/manjaro-root/@ /bin/bash
And I use this command grub-install --target=x86_64-efi --efi-directory=/boot/efi --bootloader-id=manjaro --recheck from chrooted environment.
That is not the correct way to mount a BTRFS sub-volume…
You should start by mounting your root sub-volume @ at /mnt/manjaro-root
If /dev/sda4 is your ESP you would continue with mounting that at /mnt/manjaro-root/boot/efi
Followed by chroot as sudo manjaro-chroot /mnt/manjaro-root (no @ at end)
Yes, it helped!
grub-install --target=x86_64-efi --efi-directory=/boot/efi --bootloader-id=manjaro --recheck
update-grub
I executed commands above from chrooted environment, now /boot/efi/EFI/manjaro/grubx64.efi file was generated.
Still when launching PC grub menu doesn’t appear. Having pressed F11 on start I can see boot list with Win10 and Manjaro USB stick only.
Maybe:
(Terminal) sudo nano /etc/default/grub
Change entry GRUB_TIMEOUT_STYLE=hidden to: GRUB_TIMEOUT_STYLE=menu
Save: Strg O /Strg x. And sudo update-grub
That helped too. Now I can at least boot to the installed system from Manjaro USB Stick. I mean I can choose /boot/efi/EFI/manjaro/grubx64.efi file from Detect EFI bootloaders menu. But still I can’t see it in motherboard UEFI firmware interface.

But you should be able to create a new one.

btw. you did boot from hdd now (via stick) or are you running on the live ISO?

All right. Looks good.
Reboot and see what happens.
