1 I'm missing something as system can not find boot device
2
3 fdisk /dev/nvme0n1
4 Disklabel type: gpt
5
6 Device Start End Sectors Size Type
7 /dev/nvme0n1p1 2048 6143 4096 2M BIOS boot
8 /dev/nvme0n1p2 6144 268287 262144 128M EFI System
9 /dev/nvme0n1p3 268288 1316863 1048576 512M Linux swap
10 /dev/nvme0n1p4 1316864 315889663 314572800 150G Linux filesystem
11
12 I don't want to use EFI.
13 /boot = dev/nvme0n1p2 (ext4) file system
14
15 When I run:
16 grub-install /dev/nvme0n1p2
17 Installing for x86_64-efi platform.
18 grub-install: error: cannot find EFI directory.
19
20 but there is /boot/grub
21
22 Running: grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg is OK (no errors)
23
24 fstab:
25 /dev/nvme0n1p2 /boot ext4 noauto,noatime 1 2
26
27 The BIOS has CSM compatibly mode enable.
28 When I try to boot, system can not find bootable partition.
29
30 Am I suppose to put any file system on /dev/nvme0n1p1 (2Mb partition) the installation manual did not mention anything.
