when i turn on my computer this text appears on screen
/dev/sda1: clean, 379005/31260672 files, 12901169/125025606 blocks
once the message appears nothing happens
That’s perfectly normal, and it doesn’t have anything to do with your system’s inability to boot up.
Please provide more helpful information as to which Manjaro version you’re running, on which hardware — details, please! — and what is happening.
this message is informative, and has nothing to do with you not being able to boot…
what did you do prior to this? updating/installing/uninstalling?
and what desktop are you using?

and what was on the second hard drive? your home partition? maybe the uuid got messed up…

Hi @Cyryl,
As @Aragorn requested, more information is neccessary. To that end, please see:
- [HowTo] Provide System Information,
- [HowTo] Post screenshots and links,
- [HowTo] Request support, and
- [HowTo] Post command output and file content as formatted text.
Hope you manage!
Tip:
To provide terminal output, copy the text you wish to share, and paste it here, surrounded by three (3) backticks, a.k.a grave accents. Like this:
```
pasted text
```
This will just cause it to be rendered like this:
Portaest sed
elementum
cursus nisl nisi
hendrerit ac quis
sit
adipiscing
tortor sit leo commodo.
Instead of like this:
Portaest sed elementum cursus nisl nisi hendrerit ac quis sit adipiscing tortor sit leo commodo.
Alternatively, paste the text you wish to format as terminal output, select all pasted text, and click the </> button on the taskbar. This will indent the whole pasted section with one TAB, causing it to render the same way as described above.
Thereby improving legibility and making it much easier for those trying to be of assistance.
Please edit your post accordingly.

do this, and post a picture of the screen if it doesnt work:
try typing:
startx
and also provide output from:
cat /etc/fstab
sudo blkid
the uuid looks ok…
post output from:
cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log
and:
mhwd -l && mhwd -li
you have only nvidia gpu, and you have installed open source drivers… so uninstall them:
sudo mhwd -r pci video-linux
and install the proper one:
sudo mhwd -i pci video-nvidia
if there were no errors, reboot:
systemctl reboot
refresh your mirrors:
sudo pacman-mirrors --fasttrack 5 && sudo pacman -Syyu
if no errors, run again:
sudo mhwd -i pci video-nvidia
if there were no errors, reboot:
systemctl reboot
looks like there is no internet connection…
do you have a manjaro usb? we can install the drivers from there
