Hello all (and hopefully Andrei),
While reading the recent thread (... Zypper dup renders 15.1 to 15.2...)
I got curious about my own system - which had a reinstall (15.0) a few months
ago, which went...poorly. It took several installs and boot attempts to get
the thing to come up (which is really odd because it was a reinstall of 15.0
on top of the same 15.0 on seemingly perfectly good hardware)
Now I see that perhaps my /boot/efi is not configured correctly?
bootinfoscript doesn't even find/describe the disk where /boot/efi lives,
(/dev/nvme0n1) for some reason.
The guts of my system is
$ df -h
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/nvme0n1p2 233G 9.3G 212G 5% /
/dev/nvme0n1p1 500M 5.1M 495M 2% /boot/efi
/dev/sdb1 458G 97G 338G 23% /home
There are a few data/backup/etc. disks attached, I ignore these for simplicity

(that `fw` directory is empty)
For comparison, a simple one-disk system I have (also on 15.0) which "makes sense"

I note that the md5sums of the files in the two machines /boot/efi/EFI/opensuse
are all different (not sure if that means anything or not).
So, is this a case of "boot from rescue disk and run various grub commands
to re-write /boot/efi and all should be well" or ...?
Many thanks from a man afraid to reboot his main computer.
