Oh Manjaro, you're Kernel and grub setup is buggy, oh so buggy, and I thought better of you.
I Installed Manjaro first, then Slackware, it says you want lilo, I say no, and do not install it, going back into Manjaro and just running update-grub, no problems. Everything boots.
I installed Linux Mint it installs its own grub no matter what. After finishing setting it up, post install stuff, I reboot to go into manjaro to reestablish the grub from its distro, I get a Kernel panic, then I get pissed, upset and confused, for a brief moment, then try booting again into Mint, rerun installing grub -> sda, update it, reboot, Kernel Panaic with manjaro again, turn it off, turn it on, and go into slack, install grub using its grub, repeat, reboot, it luckily does not even let me get that far.
instead of even trying to boot manjaro it just tells me I need to load the kernel first and lets me go back into the grub boot listing. and even supergrub2 cannot get it to boot, major disaster here.
Even if I use up hours of time trying to figure out what to write in a 40_custom file to get it to find Manjaro's kernel so it load that, instead of whatever it is doing. that is not a fix, it is a workaround.
the only thing for a quick fix is reinstall it last, like a windows dual boot setup where one OS first then Linux last.
that is not how it is suppose to be, it is not windows, it is Linux ,and should cohabit with other Linux in a grub without this issue.
So I am "locked" out of Manjaro for the time being...
Why can't they just get along?
