Boot vmlinuz not found

Support

So I followed a guide on how to fix my boot issue after some updates.

Not only did this not fix the issue but I now have nothing in the kernal menu. My 2 installed kernals have vanished from the list.
Soooo what do I do now aside from cry?

Chroot again and install a kernel manually

pacman -S linux618
mkinitcpio -P
update-grub

Thank you for your reply, and while it did seem to do something and to your credit there is now a 6.18 option…
It will not boot. Sitting on a black screen currently.
Ideas?

Update: It’s in “TTY4” but I don’t have anything more than [pcname@pc ~]$

You also need to resume the upgrade the got interrupted.

And this is all in the manjaro-chroot.

You should also install kernels with the Manjaro tool:

 sudo mhwd-kernel -i linux618 
# And you can remove others with -r

I don’t use pamac. But this always suffices for official packages.

sudo pacman -Syu

If that doesn’t work..

sudo pacman-mirrors -f && sudo pacman -Syyu

Can i do that in TTY or do I need chroot through my install drive for that?

Yes, you have to do that in the terminal.

You boot the live image, and manjaro-chroot into your root. Unfortunately, it’s the only easiest way.

Mhwd says command not found

Inside the chroot?

Should be:
/usr/bin/mhwd-kernel

Manjaro-chroot -a
(Mounts dev/sdb3)
Fuse: failed to mount /media: no such directory
Sudo mhwd-kernal -i linux618
Sudo: mhwd-kernal: command not found

Possibly due to the incorrect spelling of kernel? Try:

sudo mhwd-kernel -i linux618
