rEFInd does not detect Arch sometimes

bin4ry · 2017-08-24 20:30:46

Hello there. I'm having an issue where I need to smash ESC a few times for rEFInd to detect Arch Linux. I am aware that increasing scan delay will help, but that slows down boot times and time to detect sometimes take minutes.

Here is my partition scheme:

➜ lsblk -o LABEL,PARTLABEL,UUID,MOUNTPOINT   
LABEL  PARTLABEL                 UUID                                 MOUNTPOINT

       Basic data partition      D0AC6C1DAC6BFFF8                     
       EFI system partition      266C-4369                            /boot/efi
       Microsoft reserved partition

Here is my directory structure:

Here is my config:

menuentry "Arch Linux" {
    icon EFI/refind/themes/refind-ambience/icons/os_arch.png
    volume "Arch Linux"
    loader /boot/vmlinuz-linux
    options "rw root=UUID=022c6502-4e82-46ce-b351-57164ef7d2cd quiet"
    initrd /boot/initramfs-linux.img
}

"Boot with standard options"  "rw root=UUID=022c6502-4e82-46ce-b351-57164ef7d2cd
 quiet"
"Boot to single-user mode"    "rw root=UUID=022c6502-4e82-46ce-b351-57164ef7d2cd
 quiet single"
"Boot with minimal options"   "ro root=UUID=022c6502-4e82-46ce-b351-57164ef7d2cd

The current config results into a vmlinuz-linux not found error.

When it's auto detect entry boot, the screen will displays the following:

Starting vmlinuz-linux
Using load options 'rw root=UUID=022c6502-4e82-46ce-b351-57164ef7d2cd quiet initrd=boot\initramfs-linux.img

Thanks in advance, awesome Arch users.

Don't post screenshots of text, paste the actual text. And when you do need to post an image read the Code of Conduct and only post thumbnails http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Cod … s_and_code

    volume "Arch Linux"

Does the / partition have the partition label or filesystem label "Arch Linux"?
Edit:
It seems to in the first post missed it due to line wrapping.

My mistake, should've gone through the rules first.

Yes, it does have "Arch Linux" over lsblk LABEL, PARTLABEL is Arch x86-64 root (/).
