GRUB doesn't mount hd1 (/dev/sdb)

Hello!

I installed GRUB with

 grub-install --target=x86_64-efi --efi-directory=/boot/efi --bootloader-id=GRUB 

and

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

The problem is that GRUB doesn't mount hd1 (/dev/sdb) when I try to boot without doing anything, see http://dpaste.com/2WVC6P2 BUT when I go to BIOS and boot override with the GRUB entry, it boots into GRUB without any problems. That's really weird.

Here are my partitions : http://dpaste.com/3GEHQYR

inxi -Fxz : http://dpaste.com/2N1RF44

GRUB Config : http://dpaste.com/051VQZM

GRUB Version : grub 2:2.04-2

Have you tried using efibootmgr to see your boot order?

Re: GRUB doesn't mount hd1 (/dev/sdb)

I don't understand the question.

grub isn't responsible for mounting the real root file system, I believe that falls to systemd after looking at /etc/fstab.

The "grub config" you posted isn't...that's located at /boot/grub/grub.cfg

Fajardo, my boot order is good : http://dpaste.com/3BBD431

Zod : If GRUB doesn't mount /, how could he boot it (/ is on hd1)? Here is the problem I have when I boot without going to BIOS first : http://dpaste.com/2WVC6P2, I don't know why, but I completely forgot to post it

You should post your /boot/grub/grub.cfg

I have a feeling that grub installed in /dev/sda2 has no knowledge of /dev/sdb

Re: GRUB doesn't mount hd1 (/dev/sdb)

Does the UUID of /dev/sdb1 match what's listed in /boot/grub/grub.cfg?

I don't really know how to read this file but yes, it seems to match.

Here is a blkid just in case you need it : http://dpaste.com/3MEZVF8

sdb is partitioned using GPT?  (will be listed in the output of parted -l)

Yes it is. Both disks are, by the way
