How to fix my bootmgr/EFI partition?

Ecchi · January 2, 2023, 11:35am

Hi,
I was dual booting Windows 10 & Manjaro, but I switched to EndeavourOS (+ Windows) few months ago.

But since the recent grub bug that I fixed with the solution here, my computer still try to boot into the old grub version/path (I think).
grub rescue
Also I see two perfecly working Windows Boot Manager.
double windows
Finally I can still see remain of Manjaro in grub.
manjaro remain

Edit :

Boot into your EnOS and post the output of:

efibootmgr -v

sudo parted -l

ls /boot/efi/EFI

Copy the terminal output as text, paste it into your reply, highlight it and press Ctrl-E to format.

Boot0000* endeavouros	HD(2,GPT,1f808c1a-c85d-47fa-aa32-9e226f740296,0x21386000,0xf9fff)/File(\EFI\ENDEAVOUROS\GRUBX64.EFI)

This seems ok to me.

However, what is a bit “odd” to my eyes is that you seem to have your linux partition on /dev/nvme0n1 while your ESP seems to reside on /dev/sdb. You could run lsblk -f to see if that is the case. I am saying this for you to be aware, if you will format that drive in the future, you would need to recreate the ESP ad restore your both systems’ bootloaders.

From within your EnOS, you could try to set the next boot to be 0004:

sudo efibootmgr --bootnext 0004

If that boot entry will successfully boot up your Windows, then you could delete 0001 if you choose to.

Yes, I think I bought a new ssd while Windows was on /dev/sdb and didn’t want to clone/format windows to the new drive or to go deep in dual-booting efi thing. I think Windows don’t like it when we edit the bootmgr.

Successfully booted with 0004 so I deleted 0001 as mentioned.

Then the main problem is that my computer randomly boot between nothingness (ie: img : 1) and the correct grub (ie: img : 3). And nothingness has better odds

pebcak · January 2, 2023, 1:40pm

Look into /boot/efi/EFI.
You migt have remnants of old bootloaders in there.

Could you post:

lsblk -f

and

cat /etc/fstab

?

Edit :
This cfef7577-7291-4eed-8ad5-62bd6403d441 is in img 1 I probably should delete it, but isn’t this like my root folder ?
Edit 2:
And it seems that windows is in nvme0n1p2 and the bootmgr/efi thing is definitely alone in another drive

pebcak · January 2, 2023, 2:15pm

That is you root partition.

The question is: where is your ESP?
I thought it was on /dev/sdb2. But I can’t see that being mounted nor do I see an entry for it in fstab.
Color me confused

pebcak · January 2, 2023, 2:19pm

Could you mount /dev/sdb2 on /mnt and check its content?

sudo mount /dev/sdb2 /mnt

Ecchi · January 2, 2023, 2:23pm

For me it is in /dev/sdb2 :

Model: ATA Samsung SSD 850 (scsi)
Disk /dev/sdb: 500GB
Sector size (logical/physical): 512B/512B
Partition Table: gpt
Disk Flags: 

Number  Start   End    Size   File system  Name                  Flags
 1      1049kB  285GB  285GB  ntfs         Basic data partition  msftdata
 2      285GB   286GB  524MB  fat32                              boot, esp <-- Here !

But not mounted, should I mount it ?

And seeing your reply I should mount it :

The answer should be here

Make sure to have a Live EnOS usb at hand in case something goes wrong and needs repairing from the live session.

Let’s try this and see if we can tidy up things and make it work. Hopefully

Mount /dev/sdb2 under /boot/efi
Reinstall the bootloader:

sudo grub-install --target=x86_64-efi --efi-directory=/boot/efi --bootloader-id=EnOS-grub

Check with efibootmgr -v to see if a new entry with ID EnOS-grub has been created and it is first in the boot order.
Add an entry for ESP (/dev/sdb2) in /etc/fstab:

sudo nano /etc/fstab

UUID=D6E8-2E3E /boot/efi vfat defaults 0 2

Press Ctrl-O, Enter and Ctrl-X to save the file and exit nano.

Regenerate grub.cfg

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

In case of doubt about anything, please ask before going ahead with the above.

If you get any errors at any stage post it here. If not, cross your fingers and reboot.

Ecchi · January 2, 2023, 3:31pm

Done. No errors. Reboot was successful. (But still hitting img : 1 after 2nd reboot)
efibootmgr -v

Basically theres is no changes for img:1 (still hitting it at random) and img:3 (still Two Windows + manjaro)
So far only img:2 has observable changes with now only two options : ENOS-GRUB & Windows Boot Manager

I am sorry. I am running out of ideas.

Some last suggestions:

Go into UEFI settings and make sure CSM/Legacy boot mode is disabled
Double check if EnOS-grub is at the top of boot priority (which should be).

Boot up the system and post the output from the following. Perhaps it would give someone some clue:

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

and post the URL you get from:

cat /boot/grub/grub.cfg | eos-sendlog
