I messed up (dual boot)

[SGS]

@mak-bacc

the hyprland issue is solved but my main problem remains

@SGS

So, just use custom.conf in /boot/grub like

menuentry "Garuda Linux i3wm auf nvme0n1p7" {
   insmod btrfs
   search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set=root 21e02e96-0ed6-4629-9a39-85ffee7a4359
   configfile /@/boot/grub/grub.cfg
   }

Use lsblk -f to find th OS, edit my sample.
Save the .conf as root.

But Garuda Linux do not support dual boot.
You got the first problem if you try to restore a snapshot.

Start slowly and get experience, time is the solution.

[mak-bacc]

there is not custom.conf on the dir. i should create one yes ?

[mak-bacc]

and i never had an issue with garuda and especially on dual boots. even with windows NEVER. but this time I don’t know how this happened

@mak-bacc

i should create one yes ?

Right

@mak-bacc

but this time I don’t know how this happened

@SGS

you did not change the name from garuda to something else before your second garuda install.

[mak-bacc]

i.. uh… changed it to…uh… Arch Linux

please don’t be mad

[mak-bacc]

but i installed arcolinux and vanilla arch and garuda kde lite and DUAL BOOT WORKED but after installing hyprland the error happened

Hyprland is just an DE from Garuda.
It works fine on my notebook, with custom.cfg, with M$ and 4 Garuda DE’s

You can also use other boot options, but we can’t fix, most of the times, dual boot problems, on other persons hardware.
Maybe rEFInd is for you a better solution?

Once again, great respect to the guy who maintains Arco Linux but crikey, I could never get along with it.

I haven’t followed much the thread , but when it’s about multiple Garuda installations I always used successfully the update grub section of this:

Multiple installations on one partition
