I had the same problem with a newer Lenovo Blade (x240 M5, IIRC). The problem is that ovirt-node-ng by default uses autopart with thin provisioning and that partition scheme doesn't create /boot/efi drive. Without that drive, grub-efi cannot be installed.

Looking around i've seen that there is an Alt+B sequence for booting in legacy mode. Maybe in the system setup there is an option to choose this legacy mode by default.

Hi, I tried to recreate this without success, i'll try with different hw tomorrow. The thing is, autopart with thinp doesn't mean that everything is lvm-thin - /boot should be a regular (primary) partition (for details you can check anaconda's ovirt install class) This could be a bug in anaconda or in the kickstart that deploys the node (if not installing directly from the iso), can you install CentOS-7.4 with UEFI enabled on this machine ? If you have some installation logs, that would help :) Thanks, Yuval. On Thu, Nov 16, 2017 at 9:02 PM, Luca 'remix_tj' Lorenzetto < lorenzetto.luca@gmail.com> wrote:

Hi, on the same hardware i can install with success rhel 7.4 using UEFI. This required to change my default partitioning to another one containing /boot/efi/ partition, adding this entry: part /boot/efi --fstype=efi --size=200 --ondisk=sda I suppose that autopart doesn't create this partition.

Boot partition reqs should be handled the same on both ovirt node and centos (or rhel) and you having to add this manually on rhel can give us a hint that this is a bug in anaconda (doesnt detect efi?). In other words, if you need to add this to rhel you'd need to add it to ovirt node and autopart shouldnt scare you off, just follow the partitioning guidelines, add your changes and you are all set.

Hi, I checked a little more, anaconda uses blivet to detect if the machine is EFI for its boot partition requirements, and blivet checks if /sys/firmware/efi exists [1]. The kernel registers /sys/firmware/efi only if EFI_BOOT is enabled [2], and this is set in on setup, when the kernel searches for an EFI loader signature in boot_params [3] (the signatures are defined as "EL32" and "EL64"). You can access boot_params under /sys/kernel/boot_params/data, so if you want to understand what's going on with your machine, you can try to use strings to see if it's enabled while running anaconda - on my test machine it looks like this: [anaconda root@localhost ~]# strings /sys/kernel/boot_params/data EL64 fHdrS Hope this helps :) Yuval.
