Hello, I'm contacting you because I can't install garuda (classic version)
Every time I try I get the error message:
The bootloader could not be installed.
So there, what I try :
- Basic installation (with complete erase of previous OS). Which sent me this message:
The bootloader could not be installed. The installation command
grub-install --target=x86_64-efi --efi-directory=/boot/efi --bootloader-id=Garuda --forcereturned error code 1.
- After a research I found this command
╭─garuda@garuda in ~ ╰─λ parted -l | grep -iE "^Disk /|esp" | grep -B1 esp McFly: Importing shell history for the first time. This may take a minute or two...done. ╭─garuda@garuda in ~ as 🧙 took 189ms [[✔️]|[🔴]|[🔴]] => 🔴ERROR ×
- find this topic and followed it Grub fails after update - #3 by librewish

- I also tried to use the "Garuda boot repair" but not work

- To finish I tried the chroot option on "Garuda Welcome" (not sure if he can do anything but not work too)
(The window close to fast for copy the return code)
Thanks for reading and for potential help
looks nice and it very smooth
