Unable to boot into Blend OS v3
I Installed Blend OS successfully from a live boot.
Unfortunately, the installation has not installed GRUB and I am unable to boot into Blend OS.
I found a solution in a github issue that v4 alpha has fixed this issue but I was not able to find the image files anywhere.
Please help me fix this.

V4 alpha goes on top of arch
See #📣┃announcements
So I can't install it directly from booting from a usb?
well thats inconvenient
You can
You just have to install arch first
But a stable build with ISOs is coming soon
what does it change when compared to v3?
I couldn't find any videos nor blogs containing the differences
It’s documented in the official release blog post
blendOS
blendOS v4 Alpha
We're glad to announce the first alpha release of blendOS v4!
It's the first release of blendOS that is fully declarative, allowing you to have any packages, kernels or drivers on a base Arch system of your liking, while shipping pre-configured GNOME...
If you get arch and want to install it, read this: https://asterisk.lol/blog/blend_v4/

well. thanks.
ﾑ丂ｲ乇尺ﾉ丂ズ received a thank you Jao!
Is there any way that I could get Blend v3 working?
GRUB has been a long-standing issue
It can happen when dual booting or using manual partitioning
welp.
I guess i'll wait.
V4 is also broken
It doesn't install grub
I just boot straight into windows
I also can't find blend is anywhere in the boot partition.
It was a problem with fedora where it installed grub but just didn't use it to boot.
This is different. It just didn't install grub.
Which v4
The ISO?
Though in v4 this issue can actually be debugged and fixed
Yes. The testing one
How do I do that?
Chroot in to your install from a livecd
Try then editing system.yaml to run the grub install command
Then doing a rebuild
I'm here too. I'm going to install it on a physical machine. Then I need to use Refind. How to install it?
Use system
My original boot was not installed, so of course I couldn’t use this command.
Also, I want to install v4
