Yes, I think so, too. Especially since the the documentation also says that: > You literally need like a 2MB (yes megabyte, not GB) BIOS_BOOT partition.

That's actually fairly well documented here: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/fedora/f31/install-guide/appendixes/Kickstart_Syntax_Reference/#sect-kickstart-commands-part biosboot The partition will be used for a BIOS Boot partition. A 1 MB BIOS boot partition is necessary on BIOS-based systems using a GUID Partition Table (GPT); the boot loader will be installed into it. It is not necessary on UEFI systems Just added a bit to the confusion since this clearly says, a biosboot partition is not necessary for UEFI systems (which I am using here) but then the documentation for the "location" parameter says, that's where stage 1.5 of the bootloader is going to be installed. There also doesn't seem to be a stage 1.5 any more these days: https://www.gnu.org/software/grub/manual/grub/grub.html#Images Thanks for your help though.
