Help Garuda fails to boot after today's update

Edit: Thanks for pointing it out I have changed those instructions and tested them on my system.

Jeshu please follow the below post :point_down:

I hope you didn’t uninstall dracut while installing mkinitcpio. Please remove mkinitcpio and check dracut is properly installed or not by running

sudo pacman -S garuda-dracut-support

It should reinstall everything dracut related if it was removed.

Then rebuild initramfs

sudo dracut-rebuild

And that should be it. Reboot and check if adding splash back to kernel parameter in grub allows it to boot or not. If it does you can make it permanent if it doesn’t well no harm done you can just reboot normally.

Well yeah you need to rebuild your initramfs for it to work properly. Afterall removing the splash parameter is to disable plymouth.
