sudo pacman -S grub
make sure your efi partition is mounted
grub-install --efi-directory=/PATH/TO/EFI

#

if its not efi, just run grub-install

im creating an efi partition rn. What would you recommend in terms of storage

#

like 8 gigs?

#

also would it be bad if the configuration files were between hard drives and ssd's

shadow hound
#

i think 1gb/2gb would be fine

tepid hornet
#

ok

shadow hound
#

might have to do your own testing

tepid hornet
#

what do i format it to

shadow hound
tepid hornet
#

ok lemme do that rq

#

ok so its not letting me

#

mkfs.fat -F 32 /dev/sda1 is the correct command right

#

im using that partition

shadow hound
#

yeah it should be correct

tepid hornet
#

ok i got it

#

Ok so i created a directory in /boot called /efi and then mounted the partition i just made to it

#

and i downloaded efibootmgr and i ran that command to get it to work but i got the error that efibootmgr failed to register the boot entry
