I don’t think that was it , no download , no install?
Maybe your mirrors are not up to date. sudo pacman-mirrors --continent should work.
I do see you have community shown in the repo list so you definitely haven’t tended your pacnews in over a year! But this might not be a show-stopper as such.
update done
i’m not removing the earlier kernels for now , also its almost 2:30 am here , i don’t wanna risk my health while recovering manjaro’s health so i’ll go sleep for now , hope someone can help me tomorrow as well , take care , goodnight
okay , new update , after exploring few other arc distros for the same error , i found out a guy commenting that he gets the same issue but all he does is press ‘enter’ and the system will boot normally and to my surprise , he was right , i pressed enter and the system booted , then i again restarted and didn’t press anything and i was returned to grub bootloader and then again i pressed enter after that error and here i’m in manjaro , idk what’s happening but how can an ‘enter’ make so much difference when its not even listed , also system has been updated but on doing
uname -r
5.11.22-2-MANJARO
now i have done
sudo mhwd-kernel -i linux66
but it said
==> Warning:
-> Kernel has been updated. Modules of the current kernel
-> have been backed up so you can continue to use your
-> computer. However, the new kernel will only work
-> at next boot.
okay so after rebooting , this time i didn’t had to press ‘enter’ and the manjaro booted up after that error on its own , but now i checked the kernel version still the same 5.11.22-2-MANJARO
Can you paste your /etc/default/grub , I’ll try to match it word by word
ran this command , it worked . checked uname -r , still the same
after that i looked for update-grub , and found out it doesn’t exist in arch distros

Change timeout style from hidden to menu.
Then
sudo grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg
And on reboot you will see the menu for 5 sec to choose kernel 6.6 (probably under advanced). It will then be remembered.
