[Solved] Archlinux doesn't boot after fwupdmgr update

Hi,

I ran

$ fwupdmgr update

on my thinkpad x1Extreme gen 1. After updating it wiped my archlinux entries I believe. Since it automatically boots me into windows.
I installed refind and tried to boot arch and I got this error

invalid parameter returned from fwupx64.efi

I would like to know how to debug/resolve this issue.

Thanks!

Solution:
1. Boot into arch usb
2. mount arch and ESP(UEFI partition)
3. arch-chroot into arch partition
4. Run grub-install

See if this old thread of mine can help you. The solution there was to run grub-install.
