Interesting arch issue

[Linux for blind general discussion]

Howdy,

maybe this is better placed on an ArchLinux list than here :).

witouth know your system, i have an guess.
if you exactly type what you send per mail then you missed some 
parameter (-o to specify the output file) in  grub-mkconfig
$ grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg

just an guess

cheers chrys
