 Posted: Sun Dec 08, 2024 9:15 pm Post subject: not booting, only have the grub cmd line[SOLVED] |
 |
|
I followed the handbook pretty closely ( I think) but I can't seem to get the boot loader right, it just boots into the grub command line interface. I mounted /dev/nvme0n1p1 /mnt/gentoo/efi, installed a binary kernel which got dracut to run just fine, and ran grub-install --efi-directory=/efi without issues.
What am I missing? I feel like I'm looking over something simple...
Kernel install output: https://bpa.st/NOKA
Fstab: https://bpa.st/UTCQ
Efibootmgr and /efi directory structure: https://bpa.st/E5XQ
Thank you

According to your kernel output this is an efi stub config,but according to efibootmgr it is not.
For a efi stub config you do not need grub.
It loads directly from efi.
Something like
| Code: |
efibootmgr --create \
--disk /dev/nvme0n1 --part 1 \
--label "EFISTUB Arch" \
--loader /vmlinuz-linux-lts \
--unicode 'root=UUID=01a40dd8-28f0-4636-be1e-aeed60c98095 resume=UUID=2d877d5d-4ca1-4d46-a3d6-b6ee94cbbd78 rw rootflags=subvol=@ loglevel=3 quiet initrd=\initramfs-linux-lts.img'
|
Grub expects to find kernel under /boot.
What is the content of your /boot directory?

Based on your comment I looked at the useflags for installkernel, and for some reason I put efistub and not grub 
Thank you! |
