note: I am inside an Ubuntu installation chrooting into an Arch install
When running pacman -Syu
responds with
:: Synchronizing package databases...

Hopefully the output should suffice.
I had just installed archlinux, but unable to run grub-mkconfig due to the binary not existing in the Arch install.
Thus wanting to install grub (via chroot) to make arch bootable (running os-probe
inside ubuntu does not detect the arch install) has its own issues.
I am not able to update my pacman repository database
Any suggestions?
