Hi, so I’ve installed Ubuntu alongside EndeavourOS quite a few times now (always Endeavour first, then Ubuntu) without any problems. This time, though, I installed Lubuntu after Endeavour, and now a couple of weird things have happened. I rebooted into Endeavour, and as usual I wanted to run grub-mkconfig to add Lubuntu. However, all grub-related programs (e.g. grub-mkconfig and just grub) have disappeared, except for grub-colour-chooser. arch-chroot has also disappeared, but now I have chroot.
My /boot directory is empty, except for a file called intel-ucode.img. Instead I have the directory /efi which contains my EndeavourOS entries in /efi/loader/entries. I had never noticed the directory before, and I don’t have it on my other computer that just has single-boot Endeavour.
If I chroot into the Lubuntu install I can see that it has the /boot directory, with entries for Lubuntu. It does not have an /efi directory.
It also has to be said that right now I still have the old boot menu where I can select Endeavour with LTS or normal kernel, just like before.
Why has this happened, and how can I fix it? I have not dared reinstalling any grub-related programs because I’m afraid to mess things up even more.
I have had a look at the article on systemd-boot, and the discussions here and here, but since they don’t point me to the cause of the problem, and I’m not sure they point to the right solution, I haven’t tried any of them yet.
