I can no longer boot at all. I get through the bios loading screen which shows the logo for my motherboard, then instructions for entering bios menu/flashing, which disappears after about a second. After that its just the logo… Forever. Manjaro crashed during an update through pamac gui and it lead to this.
I’m currently on a live usb of Manjaro. I searched the forums and found threads with similar but different problems and the wiki page for restoring grub. I do not even know what the real problem is… I’ve seen in a thread the recommendation to do the update while in the live disk. Someone on a community manjaro discord also believe this is the problem so far. If I am to do that I am surely going to need help with mounting btrfs as seen: here and not ruining things even further.
This worked! Mostly I was concerned about the mounting and which partitions to mount. I still do not know if I use grub, and I ran into an error another user did in those forums of an error for mkdir /var/lock/dmraid and also there was no /var/lib/pacman/db.lock, only a local and system? file/folder(cant remember 2nd one exactly). For nvmeX I did partition 2 which according to the installer had the OS on it and partition 1 for boot/efi. I cant remember if it worked but if it didn’t I just continued anyway. Regardless of the errors I still booted and am in my main system. I’m going to restart a few times just to make sure it isn’t a fluke. If I don’t edit, that means everything works! Thank you so much, you have my gratitude.
