Ah, crap... grub2 strikes again. If you boot live install, then do rpm -e --nodeps grub2 before starting the install, does it work then ?

do I need to reboot the live system, or can I just run "rpm -e --nodeps grub2" as I have not yet quit this live system?
just run "rpm -e --nodeps grub2" and then re-run the install
thanks - just adding online media

looks like I forgot the "rpm -e --nodeps grub2" part on last iso build :/ Maybe we should add back grub legacy support :)
oh dear :-( The "draklive-install" program has crashed with the following error: grub2-install failed: grub2-install: error: /usr/lib/grub/x86_64-efi/modinfo.sh doesn't exist.

Hm, so it does not trigger installing grub2-efi anymore :/ if you do "urpmi grub2-efi" and then restart install does it then work ?
that added: efibootmgr 0.12 2.mga6 x86_64 grub2-efi 2.02 0.git10457.7.mga6.x86_64 lib64efivar0 0.23 1.mga6 x86_64 not sure how to put this: "Please halt your computer, remove your live system, and restart your computer" thank you. p.s. just a note. should that read:"....remove your live system media,..."
reboot :( Mageia Grub2 menu only has 2 entries - should have a dozen or more for me "Mageia" "advanced options for Mageia" also no graphics, of the cauldron, scrolling text instead. Desktop presented. do you want to close this report, and I create 2 new Bug reports? regards Ben
No, it's ok to keep this open for now as its all grub2 integration issues... for missing entries, I assume no os-prober is installed (or it was at initial install and got no re-trigger when grub2-efi got installed for scrolling text I assume grub2 default kernel command line did not get written so it misses splash quiet
after reboot I ran: update-grub2, but no new entries were added. (so I rebooted and re-installed bootloader from MGA5 UEFI Classical installer rescue)
