artix:[artix]:~/Desktop$ uname -a
Linux artix 5.9.2-artix1-1 #1 SMP PREEMPT Thu, 29 Oct 2020 20:35:04
+0000 x86_64 GNU/Linux
But that is a live version. I can't boot the mother system
The bottom line problem is why can I not just mount the efi boot
partition, which is
1 2098kB 317MB 315MB fat32 boot, esp
under parted
or
/dev/sda1 4097 618497 614401 300M EFI System
under cfdisk
delete its current contents and everything under /boot
and run basestrap and just have it set the kernel correctly and then run
grub-install and have it contruct grub correctly?
