1) i do not have inside my /boot directory the efi subdirectory,
It is not subdirectory, it is mount point.
yes you are right, i was thinking first generate the directory's at my existing setup (by installing the correct rpm? / execute some command), then copy the files to the new partition, then generate the mount point. (as described inside the first link) - but without the files i am stuck here -
Add /boot/efi mount point, change bootloader to grub2-efi in YaST, it will do what is needed. You may need to install grub2-x86_64-efi before, I am not sure if YaST will do it automatically.
i was not thinking about yast so that's a good point/posibility. for other things i use yast, and like it. what i am missing in yast is, its for me a "black box" i never know what files are touched, what commands are used, and why. (as example: if you write inside yast to the kernal commandline: mitigations=off it will be not recognized in yast. because there is a drop down menue "cpu-herabsetzung" this translation has not really something to do with "mitigrations" but that will set the mitigation command to the commandline. - such things created me headaches. so in this case, for touching boot/partition stuff i like to learn a bit and for this i really like to try to do with shell commands.
2) what command did i have to use after i have a fat partition and the files in. grub2-install --target=x86_64-efi /dev/sda is mentioned inside the link "https://www.redhat.com/sysadmin/bios-uefi"
You will need to change bootloader in YaST so that is will be properly updated in the future. YaST will install bootloader.
as mentioned above, i really like to do with shell commands, of course in a way that it will be in future correctly automatically updated. - if i can get some help here - simoN -- www.becherer.de
