i tried linux 67 and i cant boot anymore.
it says

error: file `/boot/vmlinuz-6.7-x86_64' not found.
error: you need to load the kernel first.

I tried remaking grub

removing linux67 fixed it, but for some reason before and after removing it, it said i was using 66. maybe the bootable usb?

now ive tried linux66. same thing happened but /boot/vmlinuz-6.6-x86_64 instead

Maybe there is a misfit between

  • the place where your kernel 6.7 was installed, and
  • the place where grub searched for it :wink:
  • Your new install may have a “new” EFI-Partition
  • But your fstab may point to the UUID of the old one

Please post:

lsblk -o NAME,SIZE,TYPE,PARTTYPENAME,MOUNTPOINTS,FSTYPE,UUID | grep -e 'EFI'

Update: I just successfully resumed a hibernation from the grub command line manually. So something might be messed up with my grub menu.

I have discovered the problem. The old linux install and new one had the same UUID, which seemed to only affect where GRUB was starting the kernel from. I just generated a new UUID for the old one with GParted and everything works now.

Be glad that it has been ext4 and not btrfs.

So nothing bad happened to your partition. In the case of btrfs and a kernel <6.7, both (!!!) partitions would now be destroyed (I’m speaking from my own experience).

Until kernel 6.7 btrfs didn’t forgive such mistakes. (2 partitions having the same UUID)
