GRUB_DISTRIBUTOR in /etc/default/grub can be used to change the EFI name to something else besides openSUSE, which may be desired when multibooting TW and other openSUSE version(s). Is there a way to do this during installation? I would think it might be in the Bootloader Options tab, but if it's there, its non-obvious, and web search for a doc to cover the subject doesn't seem to be able to find anything, same as /usr/share/doc/.
Hi Felix, There is not such option. We had it in past, but it was problematic because it was hard to propose on multi boot system. But we still allow you to set it and then yast2-bootloader does not modify it and keep it as it is. So in short, no support in UI as for majority of users it is fine to keep default, but if you modify it yourself then yast will respect it.
Is it accessible to modify from vtty2 at some point during installation, so that it never gets an opportunity to usurp an existing installation's files on the ESP partition? If yes, when, and where? -- "Wisdom is supreme; therefore get wisdom. Whatever else you get, get wisdom." Proverbs 4:7 (New Living Translation) Team OS/2 ** Reg. Linux User #211409 ** a11y rocks!
