[Solved] GRUB Not showing up in BIOS

Not new to Linux, just arch. Used deb based systems for 6-7yrs now.
If the answer is just to rtfm then give a link to the page and section, but I've tried my best to read before posting.
Anyways.

I installed arch manually using the installation guide, and everything has gone well enough until I reboot. GRUB doesn't show up in UEFI setup, no matter what I do. Image
UEFI/BIOS: UEFI
GPT/MBR: GPT
Secure boot: Off Image
TPM: Off Image
CSM: Off, but tried and made no difference.
Fast boot: Off

Install Logs

Any help is appreciated, thanks!

Edit: I missed grub-mkconfig and os-prober, but my problem was not using the --removable flag with grub-install.

Re: [Solved] GRUB Not showing up in BIOS

Have you tried --removable from the first tip box on GRUB#Installation?

I don't see a grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg command after grub-install.

Re: [Solved] GRUB Not showing up in BIOS

According to the install logs, you did install grub but did not generate a grub.cfg configuration file.

Did you read over "Remember to #Generate the main configuration file after finalizing the configuration. "?

Maybe "grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg" will make it work.

Yeah you're right, that's what I forgot. That and os-prober.

# pacman -S os-prober
# micro /etc/default/grub
^e
> goto 63
63 GRUB_DISABLE_OS_PROBER=false
^s^q
# grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg

No change in grub showing up tho, still not there.
