Title: Grub Black Screen After Update
Post by: cypher on 07 October 2022, 16:16:05
After updating grub today, I can no longer get it to show the grub menu the following lines:

Code: [Select]
GRUB_TIMEOUT=5
GRUB_TIMEOUT_STYLE=menu

And changed to:
Code: [Select]
GRUB_TIMEOUT_STYLE=countdown
GRUB_INIT_TUNE="480 440 1"

The last line I just uncommented to know if Grub is initialized or not, and I've seen that it is initialized, but I get no menu at all, I can only hear the beep and a couple of seconds after that I get a blur screen and then I get runit init screen

I've reinstalled and regenerated the config file after the update was completed, as I got a message to do so, but since then I can't seem to fix this. I've reinstalled grub countless times, I've downloaded the latest artix base ISO and tried reinstalling grub from there with no success. If I wait for about 15 seconds the bootloader automatically boots into my system, but I need the Grub menu to show.

EDIT: Pressing Escape "ESC" does not show Grub Menu as well.

Thanks in advance.

I have a similar issue. The menu screen still comes up but my other kernels are no longer showing, it just boots into the last configuration, which was Zen.

After the grub update I ran:

grub-install
grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg

and got the error:

grub-mkconfig couldn't be executed successfully. error message:
Warning: os-prober will not be executed to detect other bootable partitions.
Systems on them will not be added to the GRUB boot configuration.
Check GRUB_DISABLE_OS_PROBER documentation entry.
Adding boot menu entry for UEFI Firmware Settings ...

/etc/grub.d/proxifiedScripts/linux: line 200: version_find_latest: command not found

My system is set up MBR not UEFI, btw.. Hmmm Been scouring other pages. Hope a fix comes down.

This did not fix my issue, and a downgrade did not fix it too, now I'm lost

I didn't find any fix for this issue, so I gave up and started using rEFInd instead, which boots my system.
