BLS not supported on redhat 7 #42

Hi

grub BLS is not supported on redhat 7

Can you please advise on we need to use/configure instead ?

Thanks for your support

RHEL7 only supports BLS in limited circumstances: for x86_64 hosts using BIOS boot. It was decided to not enable it for UEFI systems, see the following bugzilla:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1685223

For UEFI firmware or alternate architectures RHEL8 or later is required.

Hello

So we do not have solution with rhel 7 under EFI boot ?

Thanks

No: unfortunately the maintainers of grub2 for RHEL7 chose not to enable BLS for EFI builds.
