[RESOLVED] Boot is not mounted on start

Hello,

I have freshly istalled arch on my pc, not doing it so often, so this time failed.

Installation went smothly, grub, fstab - all went correctly. But after reboot i got only grub prompt.
Some looking around - and i see in efi partition grub files, but this partition is not mounted to /boot, even it is done correctly in fstab
I suspect nvme drivers make some impact, so how to fix.

Bad sign - i tried boot manually, with
linux  (hd0,gpt1)/vmlinuz-linux root=(hd0,gpt2)/
boot

first time i got SGX disabled in bios,
i enabled in in bios - and second boot attempt -
just nothing happens, forever hanging grub prompt

Any help is so much apprecited! i dont want to go into ui installers, I want to really understand the problem.
Thanks in advance!

Nothing is mounted during grub.
Did you forget to grub-mkconfig?
What does the grub/grub.cfg on nvme0n1p1 look like ?

Please obtain that from eg. a live distro and post it like

cat /mnt/boot/grub/grub.cfg | curl -F 'file=@-' 0x0.st

Worked like a magic!

grub-mkconfig from live boot - (forgot to complete during installation)
Thanks so much!
