| Summary | 0000033: grub2 + EFI uses /boot/efi/EFI/centos for its config. Should this not be something like /boot/efi/EFI/almalinux instead? | ||||
| Description | More of a branding issue that technical, really. Used the almalinux-deploy.sh script to convert a CENTOS 8.3 VM to Almalinux 8.3RC1 with the following specifications : - hosted on Hyper-V - Gen 2 - secure boot is disabled Hyper-V Gen2 boots using EFI. Script worked, machine boots fine. However, I noticed that the directory structure in grub2 is /boot/efi/EFI/centos. Should this not be rebranded to use a Almalinux specific directory such as /boot/efi/EFI/almalinux instead? | ||||
| Steps To Reproduce | - Install a VM with CENTOS 8.3 on a platform that boots using EFI - Run a full update using dnf update - Run the conversion script (almalinux-deploy.sh) - Observe where the symbolic link /etc/grub2-efi.cfg points to | ||||
