now with this century and PC, all want to be secure ! At home...

so, a example, i have a old tower PC, the graphic card a have
first, nvidia GPU...and, all work well, a tiny GT210 work fine
with " nouveau " driver...

the way boot is UEFI.

secure boot is off.

but, i do a uefi part format in fat32...i put and write well
the repertories...the files are in the good place...
i get only bootx64.efi (a quiet version shell uefi) and grubx64.efi 2.12
from the iso DVD linux mint 22.2.

so this time i don't use startup.sh files...beacause i respected the
s|-quence uefi boot...(BIOS, Part fat32, rep and files)

usualy, may be...u install your hard drive connected in sata and the
linux live is on a usb3.0 enclosure. i use this way. now, usb3.0, i
should find PC with native use 3.0.

but what append ? u have minimum 2 files...grub.cfg and...and...fstab !

so, if u need order for the kernel...put it in grub.cfg...i never
desactivated "nouveau" acceleration ! realy...is the last way to startx fastly... ;-)

the first and killed error is the uuid identification part in grub.cfg
and sure in fstab...why ? u know, the numbers is NOT the same if u boot
from a usb...and...the spec say...if u have a hard drive in sata, if the
sata is the ONE...this one is your hd0 for grub !

so...control with mint tool , use the live to control if boot is broken
control the uuid for the uefi part...sure...for the swap
part...and...and the part where u have the Super Linux OS !!!

some example command syntaxe for the kernel

fsck.mode=skip pcie_aspm=off nvidia_drm.fbdev=1 quiet splash


but...u can have a surprise ! is the geek life u know ! don't
use quiet and splash first...step after step...control what u need,
control the nice and tiny line for grub... u don't see ro in this cfg
isn't it ?


for fstab, we can see that for example

nofail,x-systemd.device-timeout=1ms


u can hunderstand why !!!



for END, they are no the same PC for ALL, and may be sometime they are
some specifics probl|?mes.

my partition choice is not yours part drive ! so see well if OS is on /dev/sda2 or /dev/sda3

etc,etc...

good boot ;


here they are me !!! :o)

sorry one more info !


do a usb key with gpt table...do the uefi part in fat32

and, DON'T put grub in mbr !!!

if u boot well ! howmany times u'll change grub.cfg in your life ???

so in the install, see under the menu and choice usb key to put
grub (install)... this key is a bin !!!! (poubelle)

if the sequence is well in uefi part...done !!

and ! don't have one more grub.cfg in your drive connected !!

after grub 0.99 legacy, grub know find all cfg files in the DRIVES ! it
can do probl|?mes...

and, if the syntaxe is very bad...grub down...so...read !
