[ SOLVED ] GRUB2 + UEFI issue, new entry each boot
Hello
This is happening on: 3.13.7-200.fc20.x86_64
This happened already some weeks ago, until now i didn install linunx onto this machine, as i had to turn in the laptop to the service center so they could fix the UEFI flash storage.
Either way, its happening again. as i installed Fedora 20 LXDE.
I'm very new to this UEFI boot thing. (i knew this 'secureboot' thing will be some *!@#.)
Each reboot, i do get a new entry to be listed in efibootmgr.
After each start, i did ran:
And compared them after with:
How can i figure out which is the actual boot entry of my booted fedora, and how can i disable those i dont need.
Same goes for the "window boot manager", unless there should be 2?
Weird part is, the 006 entry seemed to be expted in the first output, as 005 and 007 were there...
Also, why does it lead to the DVD drive in boot current?
Just figured this might be more of help... so much info is multiple times available... can i safly remove all 'higher' numbred entries?
Are those strings UUID strings?
By now, due to the last experience, i'm aware that i'm able to delete the boot entry by someting like (please help me to get this one proper)
But to let this run on every boot, is no 'real solution' but a workaround.
Thank you in advance
Regards Simon
EDIT:
I assume the cause for this to be the BootCurrent: 0009
But how to change it?
efibootmgr -n changes only BootNext, which i assume is only temporary?
