I tried to install ArchLinux on a usb disk, with this Acer computer. It failed, and I don't know why, but now, every time I want to boot, I'm stuck on this. It's normally booting on Win10.

I'm sure that the disk is still working, because my usb disk with Ubuntu can browse through files

Tried everything that I found :/

(I have a Win10 recovery disk ready)

If you can't fix this by yourself you shouldn't be using Arch.

lmao

Hahahahaha

You fell for the fucking meme. Enjoy your new paperweight
>>
>>53610723
Yeah

I think I'm gonna stay on Ubuntu

>Acer

Faggot asshoes.

Go to your BIOS, turn off secure boot. If you can;t make a supervisor password and then turn off secure boot.
>>
>>53610699
did you try to turn it off and on again?
>>
>>53610768
A lot of times
>>
>>53610756
Nop

Still blocked
>>
>>53610817

Well, keep fucking around in the Bios until you can turn off secure boot.
>>
>>53610842
The secure boot is disabled

I think I deleted a sda partition by mistake (instead of sdc)
>>

>Sda

wew lad
>>
>>53610699
Did you install a bootloader
>>
>>53610699
You most likely deleted everything by accident since not even GRUB is coming up.
>>
>>53610950
Nothing installed actually

If y install a random linux distro, can grub launch Windows?
>>
>>53611018
Yes. Your best bet is to install some easy distro and let it configure GRUB for you. If you don't see your Windows partition on boot, then it's probably gone.

Have you already tried a CMOS-Reset?

google it. Use a live USB as people suggested. Be more careful next time.
