Advice needed for dualboot x86_64 on an already partitioned drive

14 days ago by Mumuskeh to c/postmarketos

Hello lemmy and Nura :D.

First time being around these parts of the web. I am a MX Linux daily driver and would like to dualboot with Nura on PC. I already exported my pmbootstrap'd split images and installed them to the last 2 partitions of my SSD with Gnome Disks (idk if it counts as flashing, pls view the attached image).

Updating grub with # update-grub seemed to work, it printed pmOS being found at sda7, but trying to boot off that gets stuck. I tried talking to a LLM to solve the issue, and my conclusion is that neither does it know well enough about pmOS/Nura - I rather not waste my time in it's hallucination, and also the way I try to setup Nura is probably not documented anywhere (or maybe I suck at reading wiki). For short, It has made me aware that os-prober does not know what to do with Nura, and that manually writing Nura to grub configs is the way.

Need a hand with that, please... thanks.
