How to restore GRUB2?
Hi,
I don’t know how but, a Windows 8 update crashed GRUB and its configuration. In teh past, I resolved this problem reinstalling Antergos but, now I need resolve this issue without reinstalling.
Is it possible?
I tried to restore GRUB 2 with Repair Boot disk but I couldn’t.

hi.
Have you had a look at this link on the arch-wiki. It’s a pretty decent one. If this doesnt’ help, I’ll post back here and give you a series of commands that will / might help you.
Let me know.

On [u:3ilauqvf]restoring the bootloader[/u:3ilauqvf], Manjaro linux has a page on thier wiki here. Manjaro is also an Arch-based system. And the commands to chroot into your Antergos partion ( and installing grub onto the EFI partition) using the Antergos .iso file or via USB can be down the way as given in the Manjaro wiki.

First reformat boot partition then you basically just need to mount / and /boot, arch-chroot takes care of the rest and uses current /etc/resolv.conf so you should set up internet before chroot. Then re-install the boot loader, i would make sure the packages grub and efibootmgr are updated before going any further. I can’t really give you command by command because i don’t know your system, so these are just examples.
view partitions to figure out what you need to mount
mount partitions and create /mnt/boot (replace sdx with correct partition)
mount /dev/sdax /mnt
mkdir /mnt/boot
mount /dev/sdax /mnt/boot
resolve network connection (for wired connection this might help:
[https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/beginners’_guide#Wired][0]">[https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/be][1] … uide#Wired)
arch-chroot
arch-chroot /mnt
re-install boot loader
pacman -S grub efibootmgr
grub-install --target=x86\_64-efi --efi-directory=/boot --bootloader-id=grub\_uefi --recheck
generate grub config
grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg
More information on re-installing grub here;

and using arch-chroot;

edit: arch-chroot is included by default in the archlinux iso but you will need to install it if you are using antergos live media it’s included in the package arch-install-scripts:
pacman -S arch-install-scripts
