When I boot nothing happens. It takes me back to boot menu and no grub is loaded.What boot menu? The boot menu where it says "GRUB 2.00"? That's GRUB. You probably just forgot to generate a grub.cfg, or you should have used "grub-install [...] /dev/sdb" instead of /dev/sda (if Arch is on the second drive).Note: Change /dev/sda to reflect the drive you installed Arch on.
Hi all, I just installed backtrack on my laptop (didnt install bootloader at the end), and I want to manage this distro boot from the boot partition (with Arch owns and grub2 is installed). I simply installed os-prober and then ran grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg and the backtrack installation was succesfully detected.
I recently reinstalled Arch onto my laptop (Lenovo Thinkpad t520) and have been having problems with Grub. For the last week I've been having trouble getting it to run grub at boot at all, only being able to run windows 7 by flagging it as the bootable drive. The other day I finally got it to boot into grub, and from grub I can boot into Arch.
I have multiple HDDs and one contains Ubuntu, other OSs and GRUB v2(?).
Anyway, I usually select through the BIOS boot menu which HDD I want to boot to and I noticed a problem when booting to my drive with GRUB on it.

I've got a new Asus laptop and have been trying to install Arch Linux. UEFI and Secure Boot issues gave me a hard time getting things from the ground. Ultimately, I was able to boot into the Live CD, and I currently have Arch pretty much installed. I plan on using a BIOS motherboard (better put: Compatibility Mode on my UEFI motherboard), using GRUB.
I installed grub2-bios into partition ,instead of MBR.I removed /boot/grub directory before the upgrade just in case# chattr -i /boot/grub/core.img
# rm -rf /boot/grub/
# pacman -Syu
# modprobe dm-modAfter grub2-bios and grub2-common have been upgraded , I ran# grub-install --directory=/usr/lib/grub/i386-pc --target=i386-pc --boot-directory=/boot --recheck --force --debug /dev/sda1
