I’m new to linux and I’ve installed manjaro 3 weeks ago everything seems fine till yesterday but i updated using
sudo pacman -Syyu
After restarting it stucks on dell logo
Also I cannot access tty but i can access grub menu.
Please help me I don’t want to loss my data.
I tried the solutions from manjaro forms but it doesn’t seem to work
Cannot post image sorry
1 are there any messages?
2 in grub menu select a different kernel if you have one installed
3 otherwise boot into manjaro usb, connect to internet, and chroot:
sudo manjaro-chroot -a
4 then we will continue
No there are no messages and no extra kernels
I will try to boot from usb
Hello brahma,
So i booted from usb and entered the line as you mentioned and this happened
sudo manjaro-chroot -a 
grub-probe: error: cannot find a GRUB drive for /dev/sda1. Check your device.map.
grub-probe: error: cannot find a GRUB drive for /dev/sda1. Check your device.map.
==> Mounting (ManjaroLinux) [/dev/nvme0n1p2]
→ mount: [/mnt]
→ mount: [/mnt/boot/efi]
ok looks like you are chrooted, so first rerun update:
sudo pacman-mirrors --fasttrack 5 && sudo pacman -Syyu
any errors post here
Update is successful and no errors have been detected so far
So what’s next ?
so it was updating something?
yes i’ve updated it and it says update successful
so output from:
mhwd-kernel -li
The following kernels are installed in your system:
- linux515
so reinstall it:
pacman -S linux515
and install one kernel as a backup:
mhwd-kernel -i linux510
Hey brahma
Laptop freezed while installing now mouse and keyboard is not working
Also i forgot to mention that i updated after I exit from the chroot is that okay or I shouldn’t have done that ?
what do you mean you updated after… you need to chroot, then rerun the update… did you do that?
No I’m sorry i willdo it again and get you back
so you updated your manjaro usb… thats why it freezed … yes chroot, then rerun update, if there are errors post them here
error: failed to synchronize all databases (invalid url for server)
I couldn’t post all errors because the forms doesn’t allow to post urls but it doesn’t update
type
exit
close terminal, connect to internet, open terminal and chroot:
sudo manjaro-chroot -a
rerun update:
sudo pacman-mirrors --fasttrack 5 && sudo pacman -Syyu
and yes can post errors, use formatting, click this icon in editor:

and copy the outputs there
