I don't think so. I just tried made typo. |
| 30 |
Instead of running: |
| 31 |
grub-install /dev/nvme0n1 |
| 32 |
|
| 33 |
I did: |
| 34 |
grub-install /dev/nvme0n1p2 |
| 35 |
|
| 36 |
It install without any errors. |
| 37 |
|
| 38 |
I've not done any installation for some time, a lot had changed. It is |
| 39 |
a good practice as next PC will be a production PC; so I know to stay |
| 40 |
away from "vfat" in boot partition. |
