.. _multi-boot-restore-bl:
Restore the Clear Linux boot loader
###################################
This guide is part of the :ref:`multi-boot` tutorial. If you install a new
:abbr:`OS (operating system)` or upgrade an existing OS, the default boot
loader may change from |CL| Systemd-Boot. This guide describes how to restore
Systemd-Boot.
#. Boot the |CL| installer from a USB thumb drive. See :ref:`bootable-usb`.
#. At the introduction screen, press :kbd:`Control+Alt+F2` to bring up the
|CL| console. See Figure 1.
.. figure:: figures/multi-boot-restore-bl-1.png
Figure 1: |CL|: Console.
#. Log in as *root*.
.. note::
When you log in for the first time as *root* through the console, you must
set a new password.
#. Find the location of the |CL| EFI partition. In this example, it is
:file:`/dev/sda3`. See Figure 2.
.. code-block:: bash
fdisk -l
.. figure:: figures/multi-boot-restore-bl-2.png
Figure 2: |CL|: fdisk -l command.
#. Mount the EFI partition.
.. code-block:: bash
mount /dev/sda3 /mnt
#. Re-install Systemd-Boot to make it the default boot loader.
.. code-block:: bash
bootctl install --path /mnt
#. Unmount the EFI partition.
.. code-block:: bash
umount /mnt
#. Reboot.
If you want to install other :abbr:`OSes (operating systems)`, refer to
:ref:`multi-boot` for details.
