Hi.
After upgrading F30 to F31 I need to manually select specific efi file after each reboot to boot up Fedora system.
I read several posts and discussions, but I couldn’t take any steps to get the system to boot properly after restart without going to bios and manually selecting specific efi file. (I have not studied the uefi and the grub so far in detail so maybe it is a something in configuration but I dont know what exactly a I dont know why it is problem after upgrade.)
My computer is HP EliteBook 850 G4. Primarily designed for Windows.
Fast boot is disabled. Legacy Support is enabled and Secure Boot disabled.
Right after reboot I see:
System BootOrder not found. Creating boot entry “Boot0012” with label “Fedora” for file “\EFI\fedora\shimx64.efi” Reset System
(Then system is rebooted and this is repeated continuously).
Then I need go to:
-
bios -
boot menu
-
boot from file
-
efi, PciRoot(0x0)/Pci(0x1D,0x0)/Pci…/NVMe…
-
Path: \ EFI \ fedora \ grubx64.efi
And then system starts ok. A friend who install Fedora on my Windows notebook is no longer available, so I can’t tell if there is a separate partition for Windows, anyway, I don’t use it.
Can you help me fix booting for Fedora 31? Thanks.
Log of efibootmgr is attached.
So far I have tried: sudo dnf reinstall shim* grub* kernel* but this command ended with multiple errors like error: unpacking of archive failed on file /boot/efi/EFI/BOOT/BOOTIA32.EFI;5dee3425: cpio: open, error: shim-ia32-15-8.x86_64: install failed
(important parts of the logs are attached below)
