My manjaro dist wouldn’t update and couldn’t find the mirrors.
I followed some tutorials from google to fix it but now I’ve made it even worse.
Only memtest86 was starting on boot.
It seemed that grub didn’t exist no more.
I have now followed tutorials to get grub back, but Manjaro is not showing in grub.
I only have a simple command line grub when booting.
I’ve also tried to delete the grub folder and do:
manjaro-chroot
mkdir /boot/grub
grub-mkcondig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg
grub-install /dev/sda
But when I reboot I still only have the bash like grub thingy.
