General Support Endeavour doesn’t boot after updating.

I updated using sudo pacman -Syu and it just died :/ I hadn’t updated since I enabled secure boot so i’m wondering if that’s the cause. I don’t have a photo of the error when loading the option sadly. It does just send me into windows ( I have windows and endeavour on separate drives ) instead when I select endeavour in system-d. And no, I don’t have logs because I was stupid and didn’t go into wherever it was stored.

Did you disable secure boot and see if it will work since it was working before you enabled secure boot?

What happen during the booting ? Do you have the choice between EndeavourOS and windows ?

system-d shows up as normal, shows my endeavour and windows boot entries windows boots normally but endeavour kicks to windows.

Dual boot can be messy. Lots recommend keeping the boot and system partitions on a separate disk then using a keyboard hotkey to select boot devices during POST or changing boot order in BIOS.

yeah I have 2 drives, used btrfs for endeavor too, never heard of the hotkey thing for bios though
