I'm still lost with this grab2, very confusing. Gentoo official documentation did not mention any of this :-/ |

Official documentation did ask to create /dev/sda1 2M BIOS boot partition but there was no instruction how to mount it or format it. |
| 20 |
I was under impression Grub2 will do all of this. |
| 21 |
I booted with CD-minimal and there is no "mkdosfs" command. |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
Do I need to format the /dev/sda1? |
| 24 |
|
| 25 |
If I do: |
| 26 |
mkfs -t vfat -F 32 -n efi-boot /dev/sda1 |
| 27 |
mkfs.vfat: No such file or directory |
