If you aer using a USB connection (eg caddy), just plug it in. Linux
will recognise it and generally mount the partitions under /media/antonio/
If you are connecting direct to the main board, you'll need to power of,

things but am still dead in the water.
I appear to be using grub, not grub2. One of the
articles I found had an example of how to use grub rescue that all
works except, of course, for the actual booting of the kernel.

Hello,
More of my adventures in EFI land.
Machines that boot by EFI need an EFI System Partition. I'm used
