Cannot change grub boot loader in

cannot change grub bootloader in:

sudo gedit /etc/default/grub

specifically the line:

GRUB_THEME=“/boot/grub/themes/EndeavourOS/theme.txt”

i wanted the endeavouros theme for my boot grub loader.

it says it is set but i reload and get the default grub bootloader

grub-customizer does not load the theme at all

:-\

You probably need to generate your grub configuration.

# grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg

thankx trying now!

╰─❯ sudo grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg
[sudo] password for fj:
/usr/bin/grub-mkconfig: line 270: /boot/grub/grub.cfg.new: No such file or directory

What’s the output of the following?
ls -l /boot/grub/grub.cfg

╰─❯ ls -l /boot/grub/grub.cfg
ls: cannot access ‘/boot/grub/grub.cfg’: No such file or directory

Try running the following and share the output.
find /boot -name grub.cfg

find /boot -name grub.cfg

There’s no output?

oddly no, nothing returns as output :frowning: thank you for your help for real :slight_smile:

Can you share the output of the following?
ls /boot /efi

╰─❯ ls /boot /efi

/boot:
amd-ucode.img
ls: cannot open directory ‘/efi’: Permission denied

Can you share the output of the following?
pacman -Qs grub

Were you using systemd-boot before because looking at your /boot and /efi it looks like you never had a Grub configuration before?

perhaps i was tbh idk (using systemd-boot i am not sure :-\ ). so how can i configure a grub?

What does your boot menu currently look like, can you take a picture?

can you do a sreenshot when starting up your boot menu? i will try. if not it looks like the regular default one… but i will restart and try

I took a picture of it with my phone :selfie::mobile_phone:

Even though I said it in the configuration file it didn’t change. Super weird :hushed_face:

sudo gedit /etc/default/grub
