Otherwise,       have a look at the output of gdisk (or a similar tool) to locate your efi       partition.               GK>> The BIOS will detect the EFI parition and start what is available        GK>> there.               KR> Wouldn't that add a third place to manage boot partitions?        KR> There is the boot priority list in the bios and the boot manager         KR> grub.              The BIOS lists the bootable EFI partitions it found. Mine typically look like       this:              ---       ~# l /boot/efi/EFI/BOOT/       -rw-rw-r-- 1 root root 139264 May 5 18:55 BOOTX64.EFI       ---                     This is the default naming scheme that should always work. For everything       else, you might have to set up boot environment variables (usually, efibootmgr       is your friend there).                            Regards,       Gerrit              ... 1:01PM up 58 days, 18:07, 8 users, load averages: 0.27, 0.69, 0.65              --- msged/fbsd 6.3 2021-12-02        * Origin: And the pastiche we've invented (2:240/12)       SEEN-BY: 1/123 15/0 19/10 38 90/1 105/81 106/201 633 987 114/709 120/340       SEEN-BY: 123/131 124/5014 5016 129/305 330 331 130/330 153/7715 218/700       SEEN-BY: 226/30 227/114 229/110 111 112 113 206 317 400 424 426 428       SEEN-BY: 229/452 470 550 616 664 700 266/512 280/464 282/1038 292/854       SEEN-BY: 317/3 320/219 322/757 342/200 387/25 26 396/45 460/58 633/280       SEEN-BY: 712/848       PATH: 240/12 1120 2452/250 280/464 396/45 229/426           |
