Hey guys,
after long try and error i cant find a solution for the issues. I cant install any distro if it requires to install grub. I tested mostly every garuda image, and a lot of other distros. I constantly get the following error at the same point (when the bootloader should be installed). The only distro which works is end... and the handpicking self installing of archlinux (then i use systemd).
ERROR:
The bootloader could not be installed. The installation command <pre>grub-install --target=x86_64-efi --efi-directory=/boot/efi --bootloader-id=Garuda --force</pre> returned error code 1.
the garuda-inxi looks like this:

hopefully someone could help me to fix this error. In addition to this i cant install windows alone - the nvme couldnt be found or something - normally im good with my computer-skills but this drives me crazy.
thanks in advance
