A lot of things are moving around in /boot over the last year.
Pure speculation; if you're using a usb stick. Mount it from your
currently running system, and
cd <mount-point>/boot
rm ./loader
cp -p ./loader.efi ./loader
STRIKE THAT!
I meant
cp -p ./loader.4th ./loader
sorry!
OH, and you will, of course need to do it as root. :)
--Chris
umount <mount-point>
Then see if it doesn't work for you. Like I said, pure speculation.
But you indicated an old box. So I think you might find this works.
Best wishes!
