Which bootmanager are you using? How have you configured it?

Hey, I'm using rEFInd bootloader
Here is what I did:
54. root@archiso ~ # mount -t efivarfs efivarfs /sys/firmware/efi/efivars | [verification]
55. root@archiso ~ # pacman -S refind-efi
56. root@archiso ~ # refind-install
57. root@archiso ~ # cd /boot/EFI/refind/
58. root@archiso ~ # mkdir -p themes
59. root@archiso ~ # ls -R /boot
60. root@archiso ~ # cd -
61. root@archiso ~ # nano /boot/refind_linux.conf
62. root@archiso ~ # Change “ro” to “rw”
That the only thing I did.

The root devicepath is configured as
''
but that's not the root device, it's an empty string.
Configure the root device correctly in /boot/refind_linux.conf .
Refind doesn't do any automagic to find it for you.

I've manage to get to the tty section using F2 and then select "Boot with minimal options".
So I logged as root
checked to see if I'm mounted and typed:
nano /boot/refind_linux.conf
Here is the output..
"Boot with standard options" "archisobasedir=arch archisolabel=ARCH_201701"
"Boot to single-user mode" "archisobasedir=arch archisolabel=ARCH_201701 single"
"Boot with minimal options" "ro root=UUID=XXX"
I dont think the first two should be "archisobasedir=arch archisolabel=ARCH_201701"
Can you explain me how to configue my refind_linux.conf?
BTW if i'll replace those 2 "archisobasedir=arch archisolabel=ARCH_201701" with "ro root=UUID=XXX"
will it solve the problem?

I've ran this command:
mkrlconf
and it generated a new properly configured refind_linux.conf file.
This solved my problem.
Thank you very much @teateawhy
