I was missing around with ubuntu then decided to install manjaro so I did and updated the system, everything was going fine. After a little bit of looking around in the system without touching anything I rebooted it and suddenly it won’t boot to manjaro. Only to bios.
I tried to reinstall it again and when I pressed F12 to get the boot menu I noticed there are ubuntu and manjaro there. But before when I installed it I chose the option to erase the hard disk. So is that the reason for my problem? And how to get rid of ubuntu there ?
did you perform a proper installation, creating a fast 32 partition with mount point boot/efi with boot flag checked?
It seems ubuntu is till in the efiboot manager. That can be cleaned out once you have the laptop booting into manjaro. You might want to perform a clean install, remove and create new partitions.
If you don’t care to reinstall, and only want Manjaro installed on the disk, select the Erase Disk option it should properly format and create the partition automatically.
Not sure if this is important to mention. But when I erased the disk and installed manjaro all over again. I got an update for about 500 packages. Installing the I got a message saying "transaction aborted " and when I rebooted the laptop it went again to bios now .
I’m 100% sure when I stick my usb to install it again I’ll find ubuntu there in the boot menu
What do ypu exactly suggest me to do now. I’m totally noob. If you give me steps to do it would be much easier and appreciated
Not sure but it could have erased your disc, then could not complete the Manjaro install. Then you get no OS to boot from BIOS.
I’d try to reinstall it again. Let’s just wait what the others advise.
I just solved the BIOS problem, it seems out that the update I did from the “software update” maneger was the problem. because after the last install I run this command line in the terminal
$ sudo pacman -Syyu
It installed all the updates and upgraded the Kernel and every thing is smooth now.
I even rebooted the Laptop twice to make sure. I just checked again Ubuntu entry is still there so I will use
