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

    Ok, if I understood correctly your fstab what you should do is:

    1. Boot the live iso
    2. Run mount /dev/nvme0n1p1 /mnt
    3. run nano /mnt/refind_linux.conf
    4. Alter the file so it says this:
    "Boot with standard options"  "rw root=/dev/nvme0n1p2"
"Boot to single-user mode"    "rw root=/dev/nvme0n1p2 single"
"Boot with minimal options"   "ro root=/dev/nvme0n1p2"
    1. Save and close
    2. Unmount the drive umount /mnt
    3. Reboot

    That should work

    Edit: noticed my disk was 1 while yours is 0, didn’t remembered I had two ssds on that machine hahahah

    Edit2: check that the file exists in /mnt, it should if you ran refind-install the first time.

        Did you confirm that the file existed before editing? And that you were mounting the correct boot and not root partition?

        I don’t know what else it can be if that doesn’t solve it.
