Well, in order to boot you have to place .efi into /boot/efi, I am not sure if it is the best idea to directly install everything with .efi into /boot/efi. As far as I know, elilo is installed into /usr/lib/elilo and grub2 is placed into /boot/efi by grub2-install. > > Unless you really think that having /usr/ as a vfat filesystem is ok? > :) > > thanks, > > greg k-h >
