I got to the point-
Chroot/bin/bash
[root@manjaro /] # grub-install

What did I screw up this time?
It means you didn’t enter the complete command…
grub-install --recheck --no-rs-codes --modules="part_gpt part_msdos" --efi-directory="/boot/efi" --target="x86_64-efi"
Make sure you copy and paste it completely, down to the last character.
Installing
EFI variables not supported on this system
Grub install error efi boot he failed to register the boot entry
No such file or directory
Try this command…
mount -t efivarfs efivarfs /sys/firmware/efi/efivarfs
grub-install --recheck --no-rs-codes --modules="part_gpt part_msdos" --efi-directory="/boot/efi" --target="x86_64-efi"
update-grub
exit
umount -R /manjaro
recheck info
inxi -Mxa ( check for UEFI only , not UEFI[legacy] or Bios )
test -d /sys/firmware/efi && echo efi || echo bios
in your Bios
you should see
UEFI < USB vendor name > < patrition 1 > --> boot in EFI
is ko if you get UEFI[legacy] on boot USB iso manjaro

mount -t efivarfs efivarfs /sys/firmware/efi/efivarfs
grub-install --recheck --no-rs-codes --modules="part_gpt part_msdos" --efi-directory="/boot/efi" --target="x86_64-efi"
update-grub
exit
umount -R /manjaro
Efivarfs : mount point does not exist
mkdir /sys/firmware/efi/efivarfs
mount -t efivarfs efivarfs /sys/firmware/efi/efivarfs
grub-install --recheck --no-rs-codes --modules="part_gpt part_msdos" --efi-directory="/boot/efi" --target="x86_64-efi"
update-grub
exit
umount -R /manjaro
Update: Corrected a typo. Sorry about that.
I know… I am a pain…
Mkdir: efivar cannot create directory
Operation not permitted
I am on root@manjaro ~]#
Then you are not in the chroot
environment, which means you didn’t execute all the commands.
– sigh –
Okay, let’s go over this again, and please this time, use the browser in the live session to connect to the forum, so that you can execute all of the commands below…
mount --bind /dev /manjaro/dev
mount -t proc /manjaro/proc
mount -t sysfs /manjaro/sys
[ -d /manjaro/sys/firmware/efi/efivarfs ] || mkdir -p /manjaro/sys/firmware/efi/efivarfs
mount -t efivarfs efivarfs /manjaro/sys/firmware/efi/efivarfs
chroot /manjaro /usr/bin/bash
grub-install --recheck --no-rs-codes --modules="part_gpt part_msdos" --efi-directory="/boot/efi" --target="x86_64-efi"
update-grub
exit
umount -R /manjaro
You won’t believe it
Firefox just died on me
The GUI started flickering and it froze
Won’t restart
One more time
I promise I am rebooting usb stick
Ok now step by step one by one command
Boot the USB drive.
Open up a terminal.
Become root.
su -
mount -t ext4 /dev/sda6 /manjaro
mount -t vfat /dev/sda1 /manjaro/boot/efi
mount --bind /dev /manjaro/dev
mount -t proc proc /manjaro/proc
mount -t sysfs sys /manjaro/sys
[ -d /manjaro/sys/firmware/efi/efivarfs ] || mkdir -p /manjaro/sys/firmware/efi/efivarfs
mount -t efivarfs efivarfs /manjaro/sys/firmware/efi/efivarfs
chroot /manjaro /usr/bin/bash
grub-install --recheck --no-rs-codes --modules="part_gpt part_msdos" --efi-directory="/boot/efi" --target="x86_64-efi"
update-grub
exit
umount -R /manjaro
I am going step by step here so that we both remain sane
Step 4 returns now:
Manjaro/proc: can’t find in etc/fstab
There were typos in my previous post. I’ve corrected them. Please try again from the 4th line on as corrected above.
I am stuck at efivarfs now
I go line by line
Command after command
Copy paste from live boot Firefox
Mkdir cannot create directory
Inhale exhale I’m the worst
I understand Aragorn you are my hero- kudos to you.
I have not been able to go past step 4
Perhaps tomorrow someone could take over - replying, entering properly edited text on my small smarphone is not easy, also my baby boy crying all the time makes it all more complicated to follow…
I am grateful to you mate and I will find the guy who told me upgrading W10 would pose absolutely no issues whatsoever…
When burning the iso under Rufus
The partition scheme is supposed to remain MBR or be modified to GPT?
I’m struggling to discover my mistakes here…
My flash usb stick is working properly.
I have downloaded the right iso of Manjaro KDE x64
What could I have missed?
Edit/ this time I made use of Stephane’s suggestion
chroot -a
Select system to mount 0-0
I chose 1
Grub installed. Success.
Generated grub config file
However, I still can’t get efivarfs to work
Also,
grub-probe error cannot find a grub drive for dev/sdv1
edit2://followed the instructions, restarted, now on Manjaro, update-GRUB to see my Windows 10 as well.
Upon restart there is no Windows 10 in boot menu any more - did I miss sth again?
Should I now go back to my original BIOS settings?
Is that all? Has it been fixed, gentlemen?
