Failed boot of grub on UEFI #15

Open gkisuze opened 3 years ago

gkisuze commented 3 years ago

When tested with dell optiplex 7040, PC becomes unbootable in both UEFI and legacy mode. Problem arises from the way grub handles UEFI boot process. There is a fix to the problem when refind is installed to replace grub. I wish to replace grub with refind if UEFI mode is selected. Any ideas?

apt install refind

refind-install

refind-install --usedefault /dev/sda2

reboot

Is it possible to install refind after the install is complete?

gkisuze commented 3 years ago

Yes it is. Just before reboot. Use the three commands I indicated. i.e

apt install refind

refind-install

refind-install --usedefault /dev/sda2

It works out well.
