Libreboot on x200 can't load Linux kernel after upgrading Parabola
mera - about 3 years ago -
I ran full upgrade by 'pacman -Syu', then tried to reboot the laptop. The Libreboot grub cannot locate the Linux kernel. I tried to load the kernel manually with no success. See error message and my trial commands in the attached pictures.
A bit of background may help: this is a new installation of Parabola and I had a similar problem in booting up the X200 laptop from a systemd-lxde live USB, the Libreboot grub did not find the kernel on the USB drive and would give me a "syntax error". I found a method by googling to boot the system manually. The commands have be copied into the attached text file.
Now I am stuck, as I have access only to the Libreboot grub and can't do anything on the Parabola anymore. Any comment or hint is much appreciated.

Try regenerating the initramfs, reinstalling GRUB and updating its config (from a chroot, make sure to mount both root and boot):
grub-install --target=i386-pc /dev/sdX
grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg
mkinitcpio -p linux-libre
