[FAILED] Failed to mount /boot/efi (due to some important system package removals)

After today’s update it shows this on boot screen. Not sure how much damage has been done due to this mistake.

/efi

  • ls /usr/lib/modules

6.10.4-arch2-1 6.11.6-arch1-1 6.6.59-1-lts

I want to know how to fix this so that next time I reinstall EOS I don’t have to face similar issues or fix it myself.

2

Does the fallback entry work?

What does find /efi return?(You need to mount the EFI partition before running the command)

3

Sorry, how do I mount that? Using gparted ?

From outside the chroot:

sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/efi

From inside the chroot:

mount /dev/sda1 /efi
5

It gives me this error
sudo: unable to find terminal name for device 136, 1
(I’m inside the chroot root@EndeavourOS )

6

Oops, don’t use sudo inside the chroot.

That is a mess. Remove everything under /efi/e1d2dd3581684e4a9f82128f55dc08d1 and /efi/loader/entries

The run reinstall-kernels

Done. Now everything should be okay?

It showed me in few dracut errors

but otherwise looks okay.
10

That seems bad.

What happens if you update your system pacman -Syu

11

Nothing much just updated few packages. I tried reinstall-kernels again but again it shows those dracut errors.

12

Can I see the full output from reinstall-kernels

13
