hi everyone
I've run unetbootin to installed freeDos on a usb stick,
which it did, but now my system does not boot. Gee..
I have a fedora27 on a Dell laptop in EFI mode.
System attempts to boot, where it should do it waits just a
few sec and says no bootable devices available, or something
like that.
I boot a liveCD fedora, there I do:
# efibootmgr -v
...
Boot0008* f25
PciRoot(9x)/Pci(0x17,0x0)/EDD10(0x2a010480)/HD(1,GPT,c9b2adc2-.....,0x800x0x64000/File(\EFI\fedora\grubx64.efi)
...
that entry above was, should be my fedora installation. I do:
# fdisk -l /dev/sda
...
Device....
/dev/sda1 2048 411647 4009600 200M EFI System
/dev/sda2 411648 1435647 1024000 500M Linux
filesystem
/dev/sda3 1435648 5000117503 49... 237.8G Linux
filesystem
So it seems like everything is there, right? I'm really
asking, I'm a novice here on grub2/efi subject.
I tried mounting /dev/sda1 under /mnt in live fedora, then I
did:
# grub2-install --efi-directory=/mnt/EFI /dev/sda
which command said id did without errors, but all I can see
happened a new entry was added which efibootmgr would show,
but that new boot id would not boot also.
Any help, advice on how to troubleshoot it I'd greatly!!
appreciate.
many! thank, L.
