For UEFI boot the best way is to install the kernel to the ESP, |
| 26 |
especially if it is directly loaded by EFI. Which exact message do you |
| 27 |
see? It is not clear if the kernel already booted and just cannot find |
| 28 |
the rootfs, or if even the kernel cannot load. |
| 29 |
|
| 30 |
I don't know reFind, but some EFI loaders like gummiboot / systemd-boot |
| 31 |
expect the kernel to have an EFI stub because the kernel is |
| 32 |
chain-loaded through EFI... |
| 33 |
|
| 34 |
So we need to know a few things: |
| 35 |
|
| 36 |
1. partition layout |
| 37 |
2. kernel cmdline |
| 38 |
3. boot-loader config |
| 39 |
4. exact error message on screen |
