After installing grub, I can't see arch as an option.
I installed it with the command the https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/GRUB page recommended but I replaced esp with boot, where I mounted it. I also generated the config with the command from there. I was also chrooted and I had linux on the partition. I'm on a gpt system, but it shouldn't be a problem. The partition had 50MB, so size shouldn't also be a problem. The arch partition is set as Linux FIlesystem because that's what appeared when I entered "LInux Root" in fdisk when changing the type in fdisk. The root was formated to ext4 while the boot was fat32.

Quick update, I tried installing gummiboot as a temporary solution until I get an answer but I had the same problem.

Another quick update, I tried to change the partition type to root again by copying the id and I redid the grub config, but it sadly still didn't work.

Re: After installing grub, I can't see arch as an option.
Please do not paraphrase, but post the actual commands you ran. In the same way, post the actual output.
If you are in a state, where you can not easily paste the outout to the browser, use a pastebin service. See https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/List_o … n_services
What is your disk layout?
Is this a first installation or was it working before?
A partition with 50MB sounds quite small.

50MB will absolutely not be enough for an ESP that's supposed to house the kernel. 50MB is enough if you mount it to /efi and install GRUB there but keep the kernel on an appropriately sized root partition in the /boot directory.
