Manjaro failed to find boot device

I have two NVMe in my desktop, one installed with Windows and the other for Manjaro. I boot Manjaro either directly in UEFI or in VMWare in Windows. The setup works before.

Now when I try to boot the Manjaro directly, I get “device ‘/dev/mapper/luks-***’ not found” error:

I am sure the UUID is correct. I fixed the error by manjaro-chroot into the system and execute sudo mkinitcpio -P without modifying any configurations. However, booting from UEFI works now but booting from VMWare is now broken with the same error:

image

If I do the chroot to fix the VM, then the direct boot will have the same error again.

BTW, the keyboard doesn’t work in rootfs emergency shell.

/etc/mkinitcpio.conf:

# vim:set ft=sh
# MODULES
# The following modules are loaded before any boot hooks are
# run.  Advanced users may wish to specify all system modules
# in this array.  For instance:
#     MODULES=(usbhid xhci_hcd)
MODULES=(xhci_hcd usbhid vmwgfx nvidia nvidia_modeset nvidia_uvm nvidia_drm)
 
# BINARIES
# This setting includes any additional binaries a given user may
# wish into the CPIO image.  This is run last, so it may be used to
# override the actual binaries included by a given hook
# BINARIES are dependency parsed, so you may safely ignore libraries
BINARIES=()
 
# FILES
# This setting is similar to BINARIES above, however, files are added
# as-is and are not parsed in any way.  This is useful for config files.
FILES=(/crypto_keyfile.bin)
 
# HOOKS
# This is the most important setting in this file.  The HOOKS control the
# modules and scripts added to the image, and what happens at boot time.
# Order is important, and it is recommended that you do not change the
# order in which HOOKS are added.  Run 'mkinitcpio -H <hook name>' for
# help on a given hook.
# 'base' is _required_ unless you know precisely what you are doing.
# 'udev' is _required_ in order to automatically load modules
# 'filesystems' is _required_ unless you specify your fs modules in MODULES
# Examples:
##   This setup specifies all modules in the MODULES setting above.
##   No RAID, lvm2, or encrypted root is needed.
#    HOOKS=(base)
#
##   This setup will autodetect all modules for your system and should
##   work as a sane default
#    HOOKS=(base udev autodetect modconf block filesystems fsck)
#
##   This setup will generate a 'full' image which supports most systems.
##   No autodetection is done.
#    HOOKS=(base udev modconf block filesystems fsck)
#
##   This setup assembles a mdadm array with an encrypted root file system.
##   Note: See 'mkinitcpio -H mdadm_udev' for more information on RAID devices.
#    HOOKS=(base udev modconf keyboard keymap consolefont block mdadm_udev encrypt filesystems fsck)
#
##   This setup loads an lvm2 volume group.
#    HOOKS=(base udev modconf block lvm2 filesystems fsck)
#
##   NOTE: If you have /usr on a separate partition, you MUST include the
#    usr and fsck hooks.

Can you post /boot/grub/grub.cfg ?

Thank you. OP edited.

Then the filesystem driver is not loaded.
The initramfs must be rebuild.
