Re: booting problem
I booted from dvd. I used it becuase it had the uefi files on it. I used fdisk to check the install hd. It was still set to gpt but i set it again anyway. I could not find any way in the bios to switch between uefi and bios mode. After I rebooted the normal settings were there but they were messed up. I chose the Centos 8 option and I got a grub menu listing Windows followed by Fedora 31. I had upgraded to Fedora 32 several weeks ago and no longer had Fedora 31. ___ users mailing list -- users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@lists.fedoraproject.org

It looks like the bios reset to non uefi boot only. My mb is Gigabyte B450 Auros with 64gb mem. Did you install via an USB or CD/DVD? Did you boot the installer via legacy boot (extlinux) or UEFI (grub2)? It'll install the bootloader that was used to boot the install medium. Just further to Jonathan's questions, if the motherboard bios has indeed switched from UEFI to legacy you should be able to go into the bios settings and change it back to UEFI, how this is done depends on the motherboard. It also sounds like the Centos installer you are booting may be a legacy installer, in which case you might be better off obtaining a live cd/dvd of a Centos UEFI system. regards, Steve ___ users mailing list -- users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@lists.fedoraproject.org
