Arch Linux: Grub bootloader upgrade and configuration incompatibilities

[NewsBot]

A new Arch Linux blog post/announcement has been posted!

Recent changes in grub added a new command option and changed the way the command is invoked. Depending on your system hardware and setup this could cause an unbootable system due to incompatibilities between the installed bootloader and configuration. After a grub package update it is advised to run both, installation and regeneration of configuration:

grub-install ...
grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg

For more specific information on grub-install, please refer to the wiki: GRUB - ArchWiki
