Summary:
Whenever I did a BIOS update my manjaro cinnamon installation which boots in UEFI mode and which also happens to be a BTRFS installation fucks up and never boots again , because by somehow my fucking BIOS can not find the UEFI boot entry again.
So what I do do fix this problem:
1- create a bootable manjaro cinnamon usb using etcher.
2- boot from this usb into manjaro cinnamon live using UEFI (important)
3- then appy these commands: ( details above)
sudo pacman -Sy arch-install-scripts
sudo lsblk -f
sudo mount -o subvol=@ /dev/nvme0n1p2 /mnt
sudo mount -o subvol=@log /dev/nvme0n1p2 /mnt/var/log
sudo mount -o subvol=@cache /dev/nvme0n1p2 /mnt/var/cache
sudo mount -o subvol=@home /dev/nvme0n1p2 /mnt/home
sudo mount /dev/nvme0n1p1 /mnt/boot/efi
sudo arch-chroot /mnt
grub-install
exit chroot , reboot , set BIOS UEFI boot entry to “manjaro” again and boot….
important notes: For this to work you MUST first boot into Live USB environment using UEFI boot. Otherwise you can not chroot and write grub to /boot/efi
