UEFI - Fall in grub command at boot

Hello

I installed GRUB EFI but at boot i have command line of grub

my hard drive has two partitions :
/dev/sda1 ==> boot fat32
/dev/sda2 ==> linux

this is my command line :

mkfs.vfat -F32 /dev/sda1
pacman -Syu grub efibootmgr

mount -t vfat /dev/sda1 /boot/efi
mkdir -p /boot/efi/EFI
grub-install --target=x86_64-efi --efi-directory=/boot/efi --bootloader-id=grub_arch
grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg

thanks

Re: UEFI - Fall in grub command at boot

Is /dev/sda1 an EFI system partition?

Just formatting it to FAT is not enough, it must have a particular partition type.

Check with:

# gdisk -l /dev/sda

The ESP needs to have the code "ef00"
