Hello, I was planning on switching to manjaro after using it for a few months on a virtual machine. When I was going to install it i couldn’t find my partitioned disk. Sorry if it is a dumb question but does anyone know how to solve it. I’m moving from windows. Thanks!
update to latest Efi bios version
reset settings then
check all options in EFI bios
- no Secure boot
- no fast boot
- no legacy
- no CSM
- all disks on AHCI
- no optane(rst)
- may be keep USB storage on
boot on USB iso manjaro ( UEFI < USB vendor name> < partition 1 > )
open a terminal
inxi -Fxza ( check for UEFI or bios , not UEFI[legacy] )
test -d /sys/firmware/efi && echo efi || echo bios
sudo efibootmgr -v
sudo parted -l
if you have UEFI[legacy] , returns to EFI bios and recheck
before installing , have you BACKUP DATA or PERSONAL DATA ,
do it before formatting
for install
if needed , format GPT with gparted before
launch installation ,
EFI + GPT + /boot/efi ( not foget on mountpoint to add flag boot & esp , or added with Gparted after )
no EFI possible , GPT(bios_grub flag & part 33Mo NOT FORMATTED )
