please, I need help :neocat_flop__w_: (pls boost :boost_appreciated:)
my PC after installing arch on the main nvme SSD refuses to boot from my qubes os installation USB stick as well as for bazzite. like, after the grub menu, and selecting any option there, either nothing happens (for qubes os), or it loads indefinitely and crashes with it saying that the installation media couldn't be found inside a Linux emergency mode shell (for bazzite). before installing arch, everything worked fine, and I dont remember changing anything that could cause this issue either (other than adding two additional 1TB nvme SSDs to my mainboard). i also tried out reinstalling the newest bios version of my mainboard and resetting the CMOS battery state with it changing nothing, so yea :neocat_flop__w_:
if anyone knows how to fix that, it would be really nice and helpful
if that helps, these r the specs of my PC:
- amd ryzen 5 7500f
- Gigabyte B650 Gaming x AX v2 (not the rev.1.3 version)
- 32GB of ddr5 ram
- amd radeon Rx 7600
- 3x nvme SSDs (one 2TB SSD connected to the pcie5.0 slot, a 1TB SSD connected to a pcie4.0 slot and a 1TB SSD connected to a pcie4.0 slot going through the chipset instead of the CPU pcie lanes directly)

@marcylunya Are both OS on the same physical disc? If not, try unplugging discs and then starting the PC and booting from USB stick. Maybe make a USB with another OS

@marcylunya@mk.absturztau.be Maybe rerun the (only) grub installation from a live CD?

@marcylunya what does /boot/efi look like, and what's the grub config?
