Failed to mount /efi

Ok I’ll make an iso today.

I have the iso plz tell the next steps on recovering the system using chroot

Alright, I’ll try to do my best.

Let’s take it a couple of steps at the time to see how things evolve.

  1. First of all boot up your USB in UEFI mode.
  2. Once you are in the live session, connect to the network.
  3. open a terminal and run the following (one command at the time):
    sudo mount /dev/sda2 /mnt 
    sudo mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/efi 
    sudo arch-chroot /mnt

Report back in case of success or error.

If you get any error, post the whole of the error message.

My assumption is that your system turned off during an update That is why your having issues. You need to clean out the package cache to get it to stop trying to finish updating. after removing the updates you may find more success with @pebcak instructions

note that turning off the system during a write process can damage the physical disk.

EDIT:

Ok just spent a few looking back at this post from start to now and you start off saying

however according to the evidence the update did not complete. And is still continuing to try and update things. The issue is now you have a partially updated system that more than likely isn’t going to boot even if you manage to fix the EFI issue. You may need to back up the contents of the drive then format and start over. Making sure to check the disk for physical bad sectors before deciding to use it again. Never shut down the computer during an update.
