Hello, First I want to say that I’ve been using Manjaro for my PAW workstation for ~4 years and I’m really happy about the stability and up-to-dateness. Today I was apparently less lucky. After a not very successful system update via the xfce packetmanager I had to shutdown the system via REISUB. …

Good news! The moment I was about to do what you suggested, I got a new information. I simply “restored” the current snapshot in Timeshift. After that I was able to boot the default Grub menu item! Thank you all for your help and your great support! I am sure someone could flag this the solution. …

Are you using Timeshift? That creates writable snapshots by default, not read-only snapshot. The issue is: [image] Christling: I was able to work around the boot error by taking a BTRFS snapshot from the grub boot menu. (Thanks for that!!) Updating again via the package manager, which looked …

Your problems “may be” the result of not resolving some pacnew-files 1st Rollback After you did this successfully, create a snapshot. 2nd resolve your pacnew-files ! After you did this successfully, create a a snapshot. 3rd Retry the update But don´t reboot yet ! 4th resolve your pacnew-files ! I…

Hello Zesko! Thanks for replying to my post! You asked me: Are you using Timeshift? That creates writable snapshots by default, not read-only snapshot. Yes, it is a default installation and yes it seems timeshift is already installed beside btrfs/snapshots which are created automatically. Af…

Hello @Zesko ! Was there, done that! I successfully updated my system and ran the update-grub command. This did not result in a standard boot procedure via default (per countdown), but at least I can now reuse the last snapshot and do not have to go back further in the snapshot history! I have att…

@Aragorn N00b’ling here again! :smiley: I got the following error from manjaro-chroot -a in the terminal after sudo su -: [image] I bootet the Manjaro .iso in normal mode from my Ventoy USB stick.

[image] Christling: I bootet the Manjaro .iso in normal mode from my Ventoy USB stick. There is no “normal”-mode :man_shrugging: You need to select (when selecting the start-entry) the same mode as you used when installing your manjaro So if you tried with BIOS/legacy-mode this time, you ma…

[image] Christling: It is BTRFS. Maybe this is the reason why manjaro-chroot -a does not work immediately(?). Maybe ext4 is assumed? Yes, manjaro-chroot does not support btrfs, and I wrote that HowTo for people who use ext4. With btrfs, you have to manually mount all the pertinent filesyste…

Failed system update with REISUB afterwards lead to boot problem
