Hello: The BIOS_GRUB partition was installed by Ubuntu, I think, without any help from me. I am trying to understand the next step. I have to reboot into that Arch install, and walk back through it. When I get to the point of needing a boot manager, I will install gummiboot. Give it a try. Thank you.
