Hello,
I have a big problem, since last update i had no grub menu when i boot my laptop, so i decided to check uefi settings but i can’t go to uefi so when i boot the PC, i chose uefi in grub boot option and now i have a reboot loop and can’t do anything just see the laptop turn on and off is there something i can do? i don’t have access to annything as it boot and i’m not a pro
Use live ISO, chroot, fix GRUB_TIMEOUT=
micro /etc/default/grub
I have a black screen with reboot loop on the pc can’t do anything if i coild i woild have reinstall garuda but i have access to nothing on the pc
I put the live iso but still reboot loop the usb don’t load
On boot press F2 or F8 or what ever to edit the boot sequence.
With F2 or F8 the screen is black but no reboot so can’t do anything too
Search in the WWW or in the PC manual about this.
Solution include to access bios but i don’t jave access to it, it’s like the screzn is shut down but the bios open
Well it boot on garuda by itself can’t say how i didn’t do anyyhing special but still doesn’t have grub selection menu, is there a way to have it back?
chroot or if it boot then
sudo grub-install --no-nvram
sudo update-grub
Post output from
efibootmgr
lsblk -f
By-the-way, to go to the UEFI, doesn’t this work?

General situation (Before booting)
While the computer isn’t powered on yet, press and hold the F2 button of the keyboard, and then press the Power button (Do not release F2 button until the BIOS configuration display.).
Note: For certain older models of desktop computers, it may be necessary to press and hold the Del key, and then press the power button to start up, in order to access the BIOS configuration.
Apart from that, if your Garuda boots, you could open the Garuda Boot Options and make sure the Menu timeout is not set to 0.

Why do i have a Manjaro entry? i tried it but cleaned the disk before reinstall garuda
it doen’t work but it seems a display driver issue, i think the driver that should show bios and grub screen doesn’t load, i have black screen then just before my session open, the screen it blink before the session open.
Edit: it’s definitly not a grub problem, but probably a display driver, when i logged out to select x11 session, i got a black screen too so i can’t select x11 from there or wayland or a different user if i had one.
my garuda inxi in case you need it:

Garuda (2.6.22-1):
System install date: 2023-11-25
Last full system update: 2024-02-01
Is partially upgraded: No
Relevant software: snapper NetworkManager dracut nvidia-dkms
Windows dual boot: Probably (Run as root to verify)
Failed units:
i don’t know why it says probably to dual boot, i have only Garuda and i’ve selected clear the disk to install garuda.
But inxi cannot know this because you are running it without root rights.
I don’t know if it’s related but i have a lot of white text when i log off or reboot but it’s too fast to read, i just saw Nvidia in it
Isn’t there any solution to my problem? Updating my system broke it and even snap restore doesn’t fix it, it’s like the screen only turn on when the session open and stay off until then, right before the session open, it blink a few time before it turns on.
I can’t event reinstall or install another os as even the bios is a black screen since then
This is Plymouth, a bootsplash.
As long as there is a green OK in front of the white text, everything is fine.
The issue isn’t grub so maybe i should open another thread instead so the problem is clearer for everyone
In order not to attract help seekers unnecessarily, only to disappoint them with this post which is not a solution, I have removed the solution hook from your post.
Opening a new topic for the same problem is also not a solution and is not welcome in forums.
