Lost multiple multiple os's after update of kernel it seems

Issues & Assistance Unsupported hardware | Dual boot

Hello,
I had Garuda installed on top of Linux Mint, Veronica and Windows 10 and now neither of the OS's appear before Garuda boots into system. updated kernel and system. Tried looking for answers in Snapshots but nothing showed me a clue.
please help.

Hi there, welcome to the forum.
First of all, make sure that /etc/default/grub has

GRUB_DISABLE_OS_PROBER=false

Otherwise, the other OS's will never be probed.
If that value was true, after enabling setting it to true, run a:

sudo update-grub

Please always provide the output of your garuda-inxi, as requested in the template.
If the value was false, or setting it to true didn't help, we'll need some more information.
I'd start with:

sudo fdisk -l
lsblk -f

Odds are if GRUB_DISABLE_OS_PROBER=false is in your Grub file it's commented out with # in front of it. Just remove the # and save the file the edited file. Also make sure you have os-prober-btrfs and not just os-prober.

Hi!
Thanks so much! Update of grub did the trick. I really do appreciate it.
since you suggested it I thought I'd send you the info I thinkt is required. Is this what is meant by garuda-inxi??

Yes, that’s it! :slight_smile:
I took the freedom to edit your post, to give that part a raw look, which is much more readable.
Please give a look at how I did it (just edit your post without saving) for the future…
