You have mounted your ESP on /boot, so you need to tell grub *that* is your ESP, not "/boot/efi", like so: # grub2-install --target=x86_64-efi --efi-directory=/boot Once you do that, everything should pretty much Just Work. - -- Jonathan Callen -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2 iQIcBAEBCgAGBQJUyt+NAAoJEEIQbvYRB3mgolYP/1g9YlZ/IYaLlKNFOMiEKaIa KrsF+ne2vmITUXtLsVtwCDZNIQyHj6c/Ma7zHpm9Kbzn2OxpKt8dduDNdpA8QLwx E3TM3pV0AfCYRDazH6pZmHRpDc7gVTtz4yQA/uGJyyFynwqJ3LlPYqMzTv6zFUrf lJSBBHuNBU340xAukPf6iEMrNh5CbdT9bzzJGyEPfsGcAM3kDO0DlQC1jf8hgCwr YJsH/WB+EBJ4TR4phzYvAdGOJF04PAwtqTkBjmbyjTwNYy1oaZILu5qjEaHuA+PH Eybba4Dj3/ItIEyG8cy0Qw7fjUXby01OAYtnLUXMhBH7lxSsBFzcSvihxv3bpt+u HvHiOi3M+jWYpfhF1rUEGcK3pF8X7gDiQTaDkERzv+EcDLHG19McZPDb3Gpva6qi oot3O+ky5MQLuG9euhavalEMm2mDCQmSMkS7gVQff5tGUCeUc5fzLKXd1Sywj4Ze tSBctEU1gMpHenl0XO2FJ7OdgkAAeMYKSBkJJhLhYg8iXe7oBC09VmQeoPBvuwAR IMzOYJkD6+FY8pOdXQujRWnM47H9/r0434B+2nLujPQ1fgc/MHpVrv7LGwFMEocU 3UloQH4Mh927WNa/F9ilBwl5R0b8vh2hhymj8VENZmsPPB6hV5ZSsvGQ6somL+/r 4ULEtTdoNWUrIVVUvMjF =IoH5 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
