Very interesting systemd thread: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.sysutils.systemd.devel/8165
For UEFI systems, yes, grub2 is not needed and I would never recommend it, use something simpler and easier like gummiboot or syslinux (once it gets UEFI support.)
For all other systems (and those are a lot of them), sure use grub2.
So - presuming I understand the thread at gmane right - if you move a disk between a non-EFI and EFI system, you suddenly get screwed over by a systemd that suddenly starts automounting EFI instead of your traditional /dev/sda1 onto /boot?
Huh? You do that with grub2 and you have the same issues, you can't expect to move a EFI bootloader-marked disk to a non-EFI system and expect it to boot properly, no bootloader can handle that, sorry.
Of course I can. Moreover, I can use the *same* bootloader configuration for *both* cases and transparently switch between UEFI and Legacy BIOS boot. I will need to install both bootloader on this disk, sure. How do you do it with direct UEFI kernel boot? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-factory+owner@opensuse.org
