Isn’t systemd-boot way safer and simpler?

although, per specification, any FAT partition should be valid xd
smol_mazunki 2022-08-25 22:34:23
(i’ve also seen some UEFI systems actually support stuff like NTFS and ext3, but that’s not part of the specification)

systemd-boot requires your BIOS to support UEFI

smol_mazunki 2022-08-25 22:35:48
which is the case for what i just explained as well, since i’m strictly talking about GPT booting
smol_mazunki 2022-08-25 22:36:13
regardless, even with systemd-boot or grub, the systemd-boot or grub needs to reside on a partition which the BIOS can read

I. Have a problem.

todays most of laptops and PCs are using eufi

crownivaxix 2022-08-25 22:37:56
My live us says it cant find it in /etc/fstab

i’ve seen some purists still use MBR for their boot because it’s minimal xd

did you specify the mount point?

crownivaxix 2022-08-25 22:38:35
Mount point is /dev/nvme0n1
smol_mazunki 2022-08-25 22:38:44
crownivaxix 2022-08-25 22:38:35
Mount point is /dev/nvme0n1

that doesn’t make any sense

crownivaxix 2022-08-25 22:38:46
smol_mazunki 2022-08-25 22:38:33
did you specify the mount point?

Yes unless I did it wrong.

smol_mazunki 2022-08-25 22:38:55
/dev/nvme0n1 is the block device
smol_mazunki 2022-08-25 22:39:08
you want to mount a partition, not a whole block device
smol_mazunki 2022-08-25 22:39:21
meaning /dev/nvme0n1p1 or so

but the command is mount /dev/nvme0n1p1 /mnt

smol_mazunki 2022-08-25 22:39:49
to mount the partition on /mnt, as an example

Oh. Ok.

So which ones here do I need? Just the fat32? Or do I need the swap & storage partition?

crownivaxix 2022-08-25 22:42:32
Basically this.

smol_mazunki 2022-08-25 22:42:32

No.

smol_mazunki 2022-08-25 22:42:49
then it’s not grub’s fault
crownivaxix 2022-08-25 22:42:49
It just takes me to my mobo BIOS.
smol_mazunki 2022-08-25 22:42:52
