(sent via web mail) Greetings,
I'm still trying to recover my local mail server from the problem I had before Christmas. I've always used bootctl from systemd-utils to manage booting. It gives a nice menu of kernels to boot. So I booted SysRescCD from USB, restored all the partitions from backup, chrooted into the restored system and ran 'bootctl install' followed by 'bootctl list' and 'bootctl status', which told me the system was not booted from a supported loader. Next, I ran isohybrid from syslinux to make the iso bootable in UEFI, dd'd the now UEFI image to USB and tried again. Same result. One last try: I repartitioned the USB as GPT with a UEFI FAT-32 partition and a blank partition, then ran dd again into the blank partition. I still get the same error. I'm now out of ideas, and I still can't boot the box. What's more, my desktop box is suffering the same problem, so I have only one other system, on which I'm writing this. I daren't shut it down to test anything. :( Regards, Peter.
