Cannot boot- other tutorials not helping

I am running Manjaro XFCE on a ThinkPad laptop with a Ryzen 4000 series processor. When I start up, and pass the Lenovo splash screen, the system stops at a message that says /dev/nvme0n1p2 clean, … files, … blocks. It will not progress past this even leaving it for hours and the numbers never change.

I have made a manjaro boot USB and followed a tutorial that should supposedly fix everything but none of the commands are working. Here is my terminal:

[manjaro@manjaro ~]$ 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.

I don’t have any idea what to do. I do not have any technical linux knowledge and all the tutorials seem to either be “this should just work” or “take this series of steps to get to a console where you can fix your system” without explaining why I’m getting to that console or what I should do with it.

Completely stuck here. I don’t want to just reinstall from scratch if I can avoid it.

and why cant you boot into your installation? did you updated/installed/uninstalled something? were you able to boot prior?


type exit in the terminal, to exit chroot, close terminal, connect to internet, run chroot again:
manjaro-chroot -a
rerun update:
pacman-mirrors --fasttrack 5 && pacman -Syyu

just read why you cant update , there is no working link network.

it’s not. I’m connected to my home wifi.

I ran updates, rebooted, and this is what I was met with. I don’t even know if manjaro-system was one of the updates ran, I just went to the updates tab and ran everything. It wasn’t a very long list, I update frequently.

I have rebooted into the USB environment twice now and on the third attempt these commands worked and actually applied updates.

I was 100% connected the first two times I tried to run these, evidenced by the fact that I literally made this post from the laptop in question. But I guess just try try again.

Trying to boot back into main system now…

Currently running: 5.15.60-1-MANJARO (linux515)
The following kernels are installed in your system:
   * linux510
[manjaro /]# 

so you have installed only the 5.10 kernel, and there were issues with ryzen and kernel 5.10, maybe you are affected with it too, so install the 5.15 kernel:
pacman -S linux515


and do you have grub menu shown during boot?

no grub menu shown during boot. Trying the kernel install now.

[manjaro /]# 

does this look right? Let me know if I should try to boot into the system again-- it’s kind of a huge pain to log back into the USB environment every time.

Also, just for clarification, I never saw the grub menu on boot to my recollection. It was always splash screen Lenovo directly into the OS, which now that you mention it is not like what I saw when I ran Mint on my old thinkpad.

so now open this:
nano /etc/default/grub
and edit this line to look like this:
GRUB_TIMEOUT_STYLE=menu - its the third from top;
save it with: ctrl+x;
update grub:
update-grub
exit chroot:
exit
reboot, and now the grub menu will appear, and in the advanced options select the 5.15 kernel, not the fallback one, and see if it helped

Thank you. I’m back in my system.
