The Manjaro partition is not recognized

Support
41

Yess :wink: That means EFI is working and grub is installed :slight_smile:

Now it doesnā€™t find something suitable to boot.

sudo os-prober

and

sudo update-grub

Maybe that was it then?

42 
[manjaro@manjaro ~]$ sudo os-prober
/dev/nvme0n1p4:Manjaro Linux (20.1):ManjaroLinux:linux
[manjaro@manjaro ~]$ sudo update-grub
/usr/bin/grub-probe: error: failed to get canonical path of `overlay'.

:sob:

43

I have chroot then update-grub, but on reboot, boot rescure ā€¦ Iā€™m going to sleep, thank you very much for your support, TO ALL. I keep hope for tomorrow ā€¦ bye :sleeping:

44

I donā€™t know what to do, does anyone have an idea?

45

Iā€™m a little lost whatā€™s the situation right now.

You seem to have executed the commands from the installation media but without chroot.

Do you still have the efivars error message when you run update-grub in chroot?
Is your installation media recent?
What happens if you run the following outside chroot?

sudo modprobe efivars
ls /sys/firmware/efi/efivars/
46

After some tests, it seems on a dualboot with efi manjaro-chroot -a doesnā€™t work. Here is a is tutorial how to chroot manually: GRUB/Restore the GRUB Bootloader - Manjaro Linux

That worked thenā€¦

Quote:

And if you get something like

grub-install: error: failed to get canonical path of `unionā€™.

means that probably you forgot to chroot.

47

What do you mean? How doesnā€™t work?

48

It seems manjaro-chroot canā€™t recognize the correct partitions in a dualboot setup with windows on efi. At least not on my laptop and i have done a normal installation with calamares, nothing special. I have done it manually step by step, then it worked.

Need to check how exactly manjaro-chroot works there. BIOS mode works great.

Need to do more testsā€¦

49

But do you mean the bug where you have to select Manjaro in a list, where is marked as 0 but actually you have to select 1?

Or what is the error?

My system is Dual boot with Windows in UEFI and I donā€™t have any problem (besides that). Also in VMs works the same way

50

At least i am not an expert on dualbootsā€¦

Ah you mean it is the number is wrong? That could explain it. Thanks. I just used the tools as a normal user would do.

51

Yes there have been a known bug for a long time. I sent a patch and it seems that itā€™s already fixed in the Gitlab, but it still havenā€™t made it to the ISOs.

What installation media are you using? That seems old. If I can recall, you were already told to use a more up-to-date installation media. Iā€™m not sure if part of your problems are caused right now by this.

54

I made a bootable key with the latest manjaro, it didnā€™t want to boot.
BUT, I havenā€™t tried since ā€¦
My bluray player is going to get bored of all these reboots, ā€œhey, you install it or not that fucking manjaro!ā€ :rofl:

55 
mount: /new_root: wrong fs type; bad option, bad superblock on overlay, missing codepage, or helper program, or other error.
    bailling out, you are on your own. Good luck.

    sh: can't acces tty; job control turned off

Sameā€¦

56

Well, I put my ā€œhomeā€ aside, if I do a new installation, and I put my ā€œhomeā€ back in place, can I find my previous configuration?
And if not, what is the best solution to have something close to my previous config?

57

Is that what you get trying to boot your usb? How have you made your usb? I recommend Ventoy

58

sudo dd bs=4M if=/path/to/manjaro.iso of=/dev/sd[drive letter] status=progress oflag=sync

With my live key I get to the ā€œlive grubā€? is after i have the error message.

@Ciceron

This is a normal user

[manjaro@manjaro ~]$

and this is root:

[manjaro /]#

and especially when you run manjaro-chroot this must be red.

I researched all your code now. Here you are root in the first post:

but after that everything seems to be executed as normal user without chroot. ???

Here an example:

Run this in chroot.
