Don't recall any machine setup with efi boot, but found this? On the machine that doesn't boot /boot/grub.env has # GRUB Environment Block # WARNING: Do not edit this file by tools other than grub-editenv!!! saved_entry=0 boot_success=1 boot_indeterminate=0 /boot/efi/EFI/fedora has # GRUB Environment Block saved_entry=be4e5629d05040d192af245eeace0de2-5.14.12-100.fc33.x86_64 boot_success=0 kernelopts=root=UUID=a6fe5146-7a91-4f6d-ad5f-b04f68d46316 ro resume=UUID=bb597a53-7ccc-44b5-bf2c-9ebc40564f7f rhgb quiet boot_indeterminate=1 Not sure what created that resume option, or why it would cause a change in boot, since it isn't EFI??

Thanks. Bios boot on all 5 machines. terminal_output console if [ x$feature_timeout_style = xy ] ; then set timeout_style=menu set timeout=5 # Fallback normal timeout code in case the timeout_style feature is # unavailable. else set timeout=5 fi The grub.cfg file between two machines is identicle between two machines with exception of one machine having msdos5 instead of msdos1 because notebook original had windows 7 partition, and windows 7 boot option. Only other difference are lines theses a6fe.. and 8410.. lines. set kernelopts="root=UUID=a6fe5146-7a91-4f6d-ad5f-b04f68d46316 ro rhgb quiet " search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set=root 8410d98a-36ea-4189-80e0-8cd00f2eec66 The rest in the grub.cfg same. > _______________________________________________ > users mailing list -- users@lists.fedoraproject.org > To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org > Fedora Code of Conduct: > https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ > List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines > List Archives: > https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@lists.fedoraproject.org > Do not reply to spam on the list, report it: > https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure
