So the value “/sys/firmware/non-efi” might as well be “/does-not-exist”? Your patch subject says “Make sure that non-EFI grub doesn't try to use EFI”, but the problem I had was that GRUB insisted on being passed a “--target” option. That was with a GRUB installation on a system in legacy mode. Do you mean that this failed because GRUB erroneously attempted an EFI installation? I’m thoroughly confused. -- Ricardo GPG: BCA6 89B6 3655 3801 C3C6 2150 197A 5888 235F ACAC https://elephly.net
