deleted boot sequence

so before switched to arch i used manjaro and in my uefi in the boot sequence there were 2 sequences called manjaro and uefi with alot of numbers and letters and i thought that uefi was arch and after i installed it didnt delete manjaro so i deleted the manjaro seqence and rebooted sddm poped up and i loged in but it only showed an black screen with an white underline and it put me back in sddm so what i am asking is have to boot into my wm by adding an boot sequence or some way else please help fix this issue i spent weeks configureing my system.

Re: deleted boot sequence

I thought your shift key was broken.  Then I saw your username,  Maybe you log in using caps lock.

It sounds like your system is booting.  It also sounds like your old Manjaro system and your new Arch system shared the same root. 
in SDDM, change to another console using Ctrl-Alt-F2 (or F3, F4, F5).  You should see a console login prompt.  Do so.  Post the output of

journalctl -b | curl -F 'file=@-' 0x0.st 

and of

lsblk -f

.  For good measure, also the contents of /etc/fstab

And please, read the article linked in my signature.  Please try to improve your punctuation and capitalization. Zero caps and a single period does not cut it.  If English is not a first language, please consider a translation service.

Re: deleted boot sequence

thx for replying ewaller, I like my usename to be capitailzad.

The output of journalctl -b | curl -F 'file=@-' 0x0.st is.

curl: (6) Could not resolve host: oxo.st

and lsblk -F's bit differnet since I wrote it in my phone
NAME  FSTYPE FSVER LABEL UUID

Sda
Sda1       vfat         FAT32       7FAE-269E                                                             379.5m    26.                /Boot

and /etc/fstab is

# (there were some words like firesystem so i am not going write them)
#/dev/sda2

Re: deleted boot sequence

curl: (6) Could not resolve host: oxo.st

0x0.st, not OxO.st or oxo.st

Also use it to upload fstab and "lsblk -f" (not "-F")

Re: deleted boot sequence

thx for pointing out mistake seth. I replaced oxo with 0x0 but i still got

curl: (6) Could not resolve host: 0x0.st

though in the message i typed lsblk -F in the tty i typed lsblk -f I just made mistake while typinlng in my phone and I already uploaded the contents of fstab.

Re: deleted boot sequence

So you've no network at all?

sudo journalctl -b > /tmp/journal.txt

and in doubt USB walk that to a system w/ network.
You might be able to use https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Tethering (but that depends on why there's no network)
