Subject: [gentoo-user] uefi gpt grub2
Date: Thu, 08 Nov 2012 11:24:49 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <Zen-1TWQE5-0003b8-FA@smarthost03.mail.zen.net.uk> (raw)
Over the last few days I have tried to set up using uefi gpt and grub2. After many hours of frustration I have gone back to grub legacy and mbr.
I followed the Gentoo wiki and Arch wiki and several other sources of which I failed miserably. Is this technology fairly unreliable? I booted from a uefi enabled usb stick but still fell over. Is this ready for mainstream or
still alpha like?
Also does ufibootmgr change motherboard firmware? Somehow this feels
wrong if the case.
