[SOLVED]GrubKO: pc start, display "grub welcome" and reboot imediatly

Hello,

I have a problem with the start of my PC.
When I star it, it displays as always the logo of the motherboard, then displays "Welcome to grub" and immediately restarts on the parameters of the motherboard.

I can't even edit the grub configuration when it starts.

It is a double boot ( Arch / Windows ).
The two operating systems are on two different partitions.
I try to select the "Windows boot Manager" manually and Windows starts correctly.
So it's not a problem with the ssd.

I have a usb disc with an iso of archlinux, so I booted on it.

I mounted the score btrfs on "/mnt" and add "set pager = 1" and "set debug = all" to "/mnt/@/boot/grub/grub.cfg[". But I still have the same problem.

yesterday, I did an update, without problem and I turned off the pc.
This morning I have this problem.

I tried to use timeshift, but "/mnt/@/usr/bin/timeshift --help" says that: "error while loading shared libraries: libgee-0.8.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory" 

I don't know how to solve this.
Resettling grub ?

Thankyou for your help

The current version of GRUB contains a message telling to reinstall GRUB and regenerate the config due to new config options not understood by the older GRUB version. So take a live disk, mount your partitions, chroot into your system and run both the relevantly appropriate GRUB install command as well as

grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg

???
Ok thank you for the information.

I should have continued in my idea.

"Resettling grub ?" -> "Reset / Reinstall grub ?"

Because effectively, after regenerate Grub config, It's Work !

Thank you for your help

Checked again, it seems that the info message will only be in the -3 version of the package which is currently in testing: https://github.com/archlinux/svntogit-p … 6246f554d2

So you will likely not yet have seen said message if you aren't on testing, sorry about that.
