I never understood these. Arch has always been rock solid for me and in 10 years or so I have never had to chroot to fix an issue. The most annoying issues have been related to PGP signatures or old certificates but those have been easily fixed.
What is it you people do to your arch installs that fucks them up so much?
The only time is during setup once I forgot to download iwd so I had to chroot back in to install that from within the installer.
forcing reboot when mid update cause u think the system froze
Drop to tty when in doubt
I've fucked up my grub install before, that's the only time I've needed to use it, and it was an easy fix
I don't know why, but my archlinux bootloader always disappear if I connet bootable disk when my computer is booting, lol...
What the hell are people finding on the AUR? I just need it to install like... Discord and Lutrus?
Some custom or git version of application. Once a time I need to use sddm git to fix bug with my hylrland.
It's possible your uefi has a thing about default EFI boot names. I ended up changing mine to just boot because if I update the bios it clears everything and doesn't automatically pick up any EFI except boot.
My advice is that you make sure you use a full unblemished calf for sacrifice with gilded horns of gold.
If you don't gild the horns and burn the fatty thigh parts in the fire then it will never boot.
