Hi list,

I'm trying to figure out how to make my boot partition to boot from UEFI, I have grub2 installed, but I keep getting a error when I ask it to install the boot information.

mount
/dev/sdc1                   201633        156     201478   1% /boot/efi

    I have the /boot/efi part mounted ok..

# efibootmgr
efibootmgr: EFI variables are not supported on this system.


# grub2-install --target=x86_64-efi /dev/sdc
Installing for x86_64-efi platform.
efibootmgr: EFI variables are not supported on this system.
efibootmgr: EFI variables are not supported on this system.
Installation finished. No error reported.

I have this disk as my 1st boot drive in BIOS, the 2nd is the normal drive.

Boot order is EFI then Legacy (EFI only tells me "Insert boot disk and hit Enter)


    I'm assuming the "variables not supported" is blocking the install.


    BIOS reports the 1st disk to boot is

        EFI: ST2000DM001-1ER1


    Mobo is a Gigabyte Z68X-UD3H-B3  (with the latest UEFI firmware)

How can I get this UEFI be become bootable without media to make it boot in to that mode to begin with ?
