Malcom: I’m really surprised that didn’t help!
Now:
# efibootmgr -v
BootCurrent: 0000
Timeout: 0 seconds
BootOrder: 0000
Boot0000* Notebook Hard Drive BBS(HD,,0x0).......................................................................
Before my test reboot I executed the line you gave me…
efibootmgr -c -L “opensuse” -l “\EFI\opensuse\grubx64.efi”
And I saw that grubx64.efi was listed as #3 (with that SanDisk as #2). It changed to Notebook Hard Drive on reboot! (but with a couple of failed tries in between)
The failed tries:
- tried setting EFI only in BIOS: “No Bootable Image - computer will shut down”
- switched back to EFI + legacy
- tried booting normally: “No operating system installed…”
- tried BIOS F9 boot into “Notebook Hard Drive:” “No operating system installed”
- BIOS F9 boot selecting “boot from EFI file” (as I have been doing) (it booted and here I am)
So, I’ll try executing the command again (not sure how to change the boot order with that efibootmgr command) but this time w/o changing bios at all.
# efibootmgr -c -L "opensuse" -l "\\EFI\\opensuse\\grubx64.efi"
