used 100 gb empty space, created 1 GB efi partition, the rest linux filesystem.

#

dual booting with win10

#

go to bios

#

and show boot order

#

if grub not there, then add it via efibootmgr (i used that tool once, it SUCCS)

#

nevermind we dont have efibootmgr in windows

runic glade
#

how add via efibootmgr

#

Windows doesn't have such luxuries

#

Buuut

#

You could try

#

Hold shift when pressing restart in windows

#

Then somewhere there's an option to boot from a device

#

If it doesn't show there then idk

#

@runic glade you're gonna need your arch usb to troubleshoot this

#

Show the output of lsblk -f

#

And did you run grub-install when you were installing? That's what should add the boot entry

runic glade
#

I'll just do the installation again

#

and I'll do grub-install

runic glade
#

i just did it

#

also is it correct that linux filesystem is mounted on /mnt

#

and EFI system partition is mounted on /mnt/boot

runic glade
#

ok

#

somehow the efi system partition is mounted in /boot

#

not /mnt/boot

#

i used these commands to mount the partitions
mount /dev/[linux fs] /mnt

#

mount --mkdir /dev/[efi] /mnt/boot

pale knoll
#

Other than that those commands will work yeah

runic glade
#

so i have to make a directory

#

than mount

runic glade
pale knoll
#

Yeah 👍

runic glade
#

ok brb im gonna reinstall but with that instruction

#

#

#

#

Yes

But I do not have internet

#

well, wifi support for laptops on linux is still sometimes bad

#

i had one laptop which the wifi card was just not detected in any distro

#

only on windows
