New Motherboard with pre-existing Linux Install can't be found?
Sorry for making a post for such a basic question but I wasn't able to figure out my own so I'm come here as last resort.
I bought a new CPU, RAM, and motherboard combo and I migrated all my non-conflicting parts from my previous machine, which had a Linux install and a Windows install.
When I booted into the PC, I did not see an option in the boot menu or in the boot order for Linux whatsoever. Only my windows 11 IoT install and my new nanokvm.
I had a asrock x570 extreme4 and switch to a Msi Pro x870E-P WiFi. I have updated to the newest BIOS.
I was previously using systemd as my boot manager until I tried switching over to grub but neither trying to fix system D or installing grub seemed to work for me.
So I was hoping that I could delete my boot partition or somehow start from scratch without deleting any data in my root partition (Btrfs sub volumes) . and get a step-by-step installation guide for me since I can't seem to understand the arch wiki at my current state.
I would like to give you guys more information about the scenario and more context of what I've done, but i'm sadly not capable.
/dev/nvme0n1
is my linux install while /dev/nvme1n1
is Windows 11 IoT

Pull up the boot menu during POST and force it to boot the partition. That usually works depending on the manufacturer.
Otherwise, get a LiveUSB and make sure your drive is actually showing up post-boot.
