Basically title. How can i boot using grub terminal? Reboot only starts grub terminal.
I tried to boot using internet guides, how to boot my kernel, but i can’t find image to boot, and don’t know where to look
Using btrfs filesystem on machine?

Tumbleweed has grub 2.12 for quite some time. Your system tries to boot from some other location with different grub. Are you using UEFI or legacy BIOS?

This happened to me yesterday on a laptop last used in July with Leap. I used the installation media to boot the installed system, upgraded the system with zypper, then ran yast2 bootloader to increase the menu timeout. On reboot, all was back to normal.
What did you do besides zypper dup during the boot resulting in your last shutdown? Did you run zypper dup from an X terminal, or from a vtty? Did zypper dup run to normal completion, or did it crash into a reboot or shutdown?

I use UEFI. I am not sure why there was grub 2.06 if if update my laptop every week. I have 2 SSDs in my laptop one with system, and second for data storage.
Show
efibootmgr
output. You will need to boot into some live image. Also, show
lsblk -f -o +partuuid
I used installation media to update, boot and restore version before update. So now i have packages which i had before problem occured. If i remember correctly, i havent done anything more than surfed web. Then i runnned zypper dup, it was successfull as alvays, and i rebooted. I runned command in standard KDE konsole app.
Thanks, i already used installation media to recover system. But it would be nice to investigate this case a bit…
Then all traces are lost.
Hi, when you mentioned this I remembered to adjust the timeout up or down by 1 then apply (to get setting persistent). Can you explain about the < Timeout in seconds a bit more? Can lowering this setting to far cause an unbootable machine? Is there a relatively common setting area for this (Timeout in Seconds)?
If possible to ask: Can this be adjusted in /etc/default/grub somewhere also?

It should be self explanatory. Choose a timeout, where you believe you would be able to react to choose another menu entry. There is no common recommendation…
That you asked makes it clear you aren’t familiar with its content or purpose. It’s the location where yast changes are made. The difference is using yast to change it instead of editing the file directly applies changes made as yast is exited. Simply editing the file doesn’t apply any changes.
