Alternatively, you can look at the NVRAM contents with evivars. (I don't have experience yet with the newer efivarfs, but I think that's similar.) If you cannot find the UEFI boot variables, then GRUB cannot either---and the setup will be defective. It will not boot in UEFI. Old GRUB boot sectors can make the boot experience even more confusing. > The fix might be as simple as choosing a different USB boot option > before running the installer. That's how all my equipment, which is up to a decade old, works but it's always a wire act from USB creation to first boot. > You might want to try enabling it [secure boot] I do not recommend Secure Boot for average Linux users. It tends to create more problems and may not provide the security you expect. Kind regards Felix
