Boot from LiveCD

mount /dev/sda1 /mnt
mount -t proc none /mnt/proc
mount -t sysfs none /mnt/sys
mount -o bind /dev /mnt/dev
mount -o bind /dev/pts /mnt/dev/pts
cp -L /etc/resolv.conf /mnt/etc

chroot /mnt bash
mkdir /run/shm
ls -l

btrfs subvolume delete /ext2_saved

mc -e /etc/fstab

grub2-install /dev/sda
grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg

mkinitrd

i don't think i should have it as solved cause i still wanna use arch but i have to reinstall it which is dumb cause i have to configure everything again

#

i guess now that i know a lot of things about linux i can setup everything perfectly

#

well i will just mark it as solved
