You can use backticks e.g. like this:

Maybe this is a timeshift problem?

23

No, Timeshift was set up a couple of weeks ago, this has been going on since December , when they changed the Theme on boot and I noticed the two boot error messages and the cfg has been updated since Decemebr

24

What happens if you remove that file?

25

What I have done, is to replace the contents of the grub.cfg by the grub.cfg.new

This gives me a correct boot including the quiet BUT I have quite a few grub entries including a Windows 20 ??? which I no longer have and even wiped th HD to try out Debian on it one month ago in January

sudo grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg still writes grub.cfg.new not touching the grub.cfg

So so strange

26

It is because there are errors in the files you are including from /etc/grub.d.

27

Yes I belive this is the reason

grubD

The custom file contains "menuentry “Windows 20 (on /dev/sda1…” for instnace

But can I delete this or these files ?

28

proxifiedScripts

This looks very much like leftovers from Grub Customizer.

:point_up_2:t5:

29

None of those are standard files. I believe they come from grub customizer

We warn people all the time that using grub-customizer will break grub eventually.

30

I said no, or rather I do not have it now on the computer

I may have tried it once though I do not recall, But all leads to this problem coming from that
So I must have, and that’s what is screwing the grub :cold_face:

31

Here is one easy way to fix it completely:

sudo mv /etc/grub.d /etc/grub.d.old
sudo pacman -S grub
sudo grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg

That worked perfectly, Grub is as it should be

Many thanks for all your help, sorry as I messed things up

And when the recipe from @dalto worked, it very likely means grub-customizer was the real reason.
