[SOLVED] cant boot to newly installed arch linux systemd boot loader

After installing arch linux as a secondary OS with UEFI and luks encryption, i rebooted and on boot there is only option:
Reboot Into Firmware Interface

although i created the arch.conf file in /boot/loader/entries and set the default option in /boot/loader/loader.conf to arch.

how to make it show arch linux entry on boot?

lsblk output:

Re: [SOLVED] cant boot to newly installed arch linux systemd boot loader

Can we please see the (textual) output of

efibootmgr -v
parted --list

And can you confirm that the bootctl install command copied systemd-bootx64.efi to /EFI/BOOT/bootx64.efi on the EFI system partition?

Re: [SOLVED] cant boot to newly installed arch linux systemd boot loader

i have updated my question with textual outputs and the commands you requested.

i ran the bootctl path=/boot install command, but there is only BOOTX64. EFI in /boot/EFI/BOOT folder.
the systemd-boot.efi file is in /boot/EFI/systemd folder.

Yes, that's fine. All is as it should be.

Is Secure Boot disabled?

Re: [SOLVED] cant boot to newly installed arch linux systemd boot loader

i figured out the problem, i was following a tutorial but instead of a standard linux kernel i used linux-hardened kernel hence in my /boot directory i had:

vmlinuz-linux-hardened and initramfs-linux-hardened.img

but in the /boot/loader/entries/arch.conf i wrote

title Arch Linux
linux /vmlinuz-linux
initrd /intel-ucode.img
initrd /initramfs-linux.img
options cryptdevice=UUID=a0619b20-d947-4825-9f0c-035489416dbf:vg0 root=/dev/

so changing /boot/loader/enteries/arch.conf to

title Arch Linux
linux /vmlinuz-linux-hardened
initrd /intel-ucode.img
initrd /initramfs-linux-hardened.img
options cryptdevice=UUID=a0619b20-d947-4825-9f0c-035489416dbf:vg0 root=/dev/

solved the problem for me and now it can choose Arch linux in boot menu and boot without any problems.

thanks Head_on_a_stick.
hope this will help someone in the future.

That is the extent of the problem. Third party tutorials are unsupported here. If you want help, use the wiki.
