Hi list, |

I'm trying to figure out how to make my boot partition to boot from |
| 4 |
UEFI, I have grub2 installed, but I keep getting a error when I ask it |
| 5 |
to install the boot information. |
| 6 |
|
| 7 |
mount |
| 8 |
/dev/sdc1 201633 156 201478 1% /boot/efi |
| 9 |
|
| 10 |
I have the /boot/efi part mounted ok.. |
| 11 |
|
| 12 |
# efibootmgr |
| 13 |
efibootmgr: EFI variables are not supported on this system. |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
# grub2-install --target=x86_64-efi /dev/sdc |
| 17 |
Installing for x86_64-efi platform. |
| 18 |
efibootmgr: EFI variables are not supported on this system. |
| 19 |
efibootmgr: EFI variables are not supported on this system. |
| 20 |
Installation finished. No error reported. |

I have this disk as my 1st boot drive in BIOS, the 2nd is the |
| 23 |
normal drive. |
| 24 |
|
| 25 |
Boot order is EFI then Legacy (EFI only tells me "Insert boot disk |
| 26 |
and hit Enter) |
| 27 |
|
| 28 |
|
| 29 |
I'm assuming the "variables not supported" is blocking the install. |
| 30 |
|
| 31 |
|
| 32 |
BIOS reports the 1st disk to boot is |
| 33 |
|
| 34 |
EFI: ST2000DM001-1ER1 |
| 35 |
|
| 36 |
|
| 37 |
Mobo is a Gigabyte Z68X-UD3H-B3 (with the latest UEFI firmware) |
| 38 |
|
| 39 |
How can I get this UEFI be become bootable without media to make it |
| 40 |
boot in to that mode to begin with ? |
