Hey all, I recently wound up with duplicate GRUB entries for my Garuda install. The second entry is the same installation as the top one. How can I remove the duplicate? Should I edit the grub config file?

Perfect, will do. Thanks! I just wanted to check first since some threads I read online were very cautionary about editing the grub config file (for obvious reasons).

Yes, you need to be careful about syntax errors and dead links but otherwise, any major issues should be caught by mkconfig. You can always just boot from a liveUSB if you mess something up and fix it.
