--- Comment #12 from Fabian Vogt
But if you want a specialized solution just for microos and are sure no-one else will look at LOADER_TYPE: supporting grub2-auto on the pbl side just means adding scripts in /usr/lib/bootloader/grub2-auto that delegate to their grub2 resp grub2-efi counterpart.
Then I'd just use the jeos-firstboot snippet to set it based on the type of the first boot. Otherwise I'd have to maintain a pbl script forever, just for MicroOS. It's also possible that someone installs yast on microos, so I can't even be sure that LOADER_TYPE isn't read by anything else. (In reply to Neil Rickert from comment #11)
Just a note on this.
I have Tumbleweed installed on an external USB drive, for booting with either MBR/BIOS booting or UEFI booting. Installing that way works (the install succeeds) even if the installer is booted with UEFI.
This would be a use case for having both targets installed, but with one important difference: "--removable". If efivarfs is available, "grub2-efi" with SECURE_BOOT=yes would not install into /EFI/BOOT but /EFI/opensuse and create a boot entry for it. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
