Hi there, welcome to the forum.
Can you restore the latest working snapshot?

It’s giving the same errors :confused:

Just as a sanity check, make sure that in your BIOS the sata controller is set to AHCI instead of e g. Raid

SATA MODE SELECTION is set to AHCI

Try booting on a live USB, connect to your WiFi if used and use the chroot Function in the Garuda Assistant.
When you are in, reinstall the kernel you use (this will trigger also a dracut rebuild, which might help). In case of the zen kernel e.g.

pacman -S linux-zen linux-zen-headers

If this doesn’t help, from the live USB again, use the Function to reinstall the GRUB.

I am using this

And I got an error
Can’t read superblock on /dev/sda2(root)

Try from the live USB

sudo btrfs check /dev/sda2

And in case of errors

sudo btrfs check --repair /dev/sda2
