Installing the theme deletes the fedora boot entry from grub

Open Rekker36 opened this issue 3 years ago • 5 comments

I installed the theme but after rebooting the theme was installed but fedora boot entries were gone and only windows and uefi settings were there. I'm on fedora 35 if that helps.

Run this: sudo grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg

Same problem for me, on fedora 35, the installation deleted fedora from boot list. No problems instead for windows and arch linux.

I managed to get it back. And also got the theme applied too, what I did:

  • I booted back to a live USB session.
  • Mounted all the root, home and boot partitions.
  • CHRooted and reinstalled grub from scratch the same way as I did when I first installed it.
  • CDed to the directory where I cloned this project and ran the install script. This time it worked perfectly.

So in summary running this script inside the OS may cause troubles. The best way to run it through a live USB session.
