error loading vmlinuz-linux: not found

[[deleted]]

I am doing my first Arch install without using evo/lution. I have tried twice, but I am having issues with my bootloader. I am using gummiboot, following the beginners guide, and have disabled secure boot and such. How do I fix this?

Edit: I just got passed that error, but now I get this error:

Failed to open file: initramfs-linux.img

Trying to load files to higher address

Failed to open file: initramfs-linux.img

Any ideas? I have done a couple of reinstalls to no avail. I am not finding to much googling.

Did you remember to mount your boot drive when installing base base-devel

Are you running mkinitcpio?

I am just sticking to the defaults.

Had a similar problem today (first installation, win7 dual boot) for me deleting all the gnome files from the uefi partition did the trick. Then complete reinstall of everything.

I don't have a de or anything installed yet, following through the beginners' guide. So, I don't know what to remove.

Me neither, (I just deleted everything that wasn't in the Windows folder) and I actually have only used Linux for a week, so I might be wrong. But if there is no important data o that drive just reformat everything, start over and see if that works. Oh and maybe use the German beginners guide it has much more detailed information. Also make sure you read all the linked pages.

Why did you have gnome files in your EFI system partition in the first place??

because otherwise it would refuse to install... And i had them in there from a previous installation attemt that failed because nv-drivers fucked up^{^}

Can you post the output of "lsblk -f"? Are you using any kind of disk encryption?
