33 Joost,

35 no. Thanks for the hint, I had just a short look into at it.
36
37 There is presupposed that one is at a uefi system already.
38
39 I have to install refind to a disk mounted to my mbr-booted-system,
40 make all necessary adjustments there and then put it to the uefi-only
41 machine and boot it there.
42
43 So I cannot call efibootmanger to pin refind to nvram of the uefi-system.
