--- Comment #15 from Michael Chang
I tried what you proposed. The entry was added as Boot000. However, booting from the KDE Live stick was still not possible. After rebooting via grub2 the new entry was gone, as follows.
I suppose you have succeeded it (in comment#13).
I have even deleted all entries except Boot0005 with the effect that the entries Boot0007 and Boot0008 are restored.
My guess for the restoration is necessary for firmware update as boot variables recorded in nvram would be erased. But the implementation is too brute to not care about other boot variables.
Boot0008 is probably the result of an interim attempt to solve the boot problem by defining a separate EFI partition for openSUSE. But this did not work and I deleted this partition again for the nth installation of openSUSE on my computer.
OK. Thanks for clarification. But I do not understand why Boot0008 gets love from restoration but others don't ?
The following steps seem to be made on my Sony Vaio SV132A1CM: 1. The program \EFI\Microsoft\Boot\bootmgfw.efi on the SONYSYS partition is started first.
Yes. It looks like so. As your BootNext: 0005 points to it. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
