From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Fixed by using grub.

Error when trying to boot into new install. ERROR: device ' ' not found. Skipping fsck. :: mounting ' ' on real root mount : /new_root: no valid filesystem type specified. ERROR: Failed to mount ' ' on real root And I'm getting dropped in emergency shell. I used official wiki, used refind as bootloader. Second time I tried installing and got same error.
Edit1: fstab
`#/dev/nvme0n1p2
UUID=4dae009f-c08f-4636-b1b5-85a4713a6f40 / ext4 rw,relatime 0 1

#/dev/nvme0n1p1
UUID=0019-78B6 /boot vfat rw,relatime, fmask=0022,dmask=0022,codepage=437,iocharset=ascii,shortname=mixed,utf8,errors=remount-ro 0 2 `
p2 is root partition
p1 is efi partition.

Edit2: running timedatectl in chroot returns System has not been booted with systemd as init system (PID 1). Can't operate. Failed to connect to bus: Host is down

Should there be a space between 'relatime, flask=' ? Is that in fstab? It should all be one string, like in mine mine rw,relatime,fmask=0022,dmask=0022,codepage=437,iocharset=ascii,shortname=mixed,utf8,errors=remount-ro

It's one line with no spaces but I'm writing on a phone and Jarboa autocorrect is ass.
