Perhaps also show partition layout this way:

OK. So you are saying you do not see the Manjaro and EndeavourOS menu entries, when booting, right?
Perhaps let's of a look into the whole file: /boot/grub/grub.cfg.

[keos]

No, what i'm saying is that there were other options at the entries in MXLinux that vanished, they are not more in the list of options (means at MXLinux).

-- one of these options allow me before to get into others OS (from there i was able to do something inside Manjaro,now i need to do the same but ...)

What options? ... Are you talking about submenu? Perhaps someone else can understand this better?

[keos]

Yes, a kind of submenu if you prefer -- i'm not able to copy the results of /boot/grub/grub.cfg I can't download the page while coping ...
