Hello, As far as I know grub.cfg can be found in two locations: /boot/grub2/grub.cfg when NOT using EFI /boot/efi/EFI/arch/grub.cfg when using EFI the latter being the same as EFI/arch/grub.cfg on the EFI system partition which is mounted at /boot/efi (but usually not in a rescue system!). So if one is changed but the changes have no effect perhaps the other one needs to be modified. On my system (EFI boot with LVM on LUKS) the second (EFI) one just unlocks the / partition then chain-loads the first. Oh, and I also believe (hd0,gptN)/boot/.... would be the right form although I use /dev/mapper paths myself in my /boot/grub2/grub.cfg . Hope this helps, NTS On Wed, 19 Jan 2022 at 15:06, wingstroke via arch-general <arch-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > > I have a very similar system to yours with the same partitioning scheme and formats.

You need to install grub and efibootmgr packages before running the above commands.
