I just did a fresh install with the “erase entire disk” option. There’s only my new manjaro installation and when I reboot the ThinkPad T540p, it won’t load GRUB and appears to be going to network boot. I checked my boot order and the HDD is definitely first.
I was able to get the following info from a terminal by using the Live USB:
