When I get to step #8 (grub2-install --boot-directory=/boot /dev/sda) on this page ( https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/GRUB_2#Create_a_GRUB_2_configuration), it fails with a can't find efi directory error.

In my case I seem to remember to have started with Fedora 24... but after booting from a Slax based usb key (see https://www.slax.org/), I see hat indeed I had a grub.cfg.rpmsave under /boot/grub2/ (I have a separate /boot partition) After copying to grub.cfg and rebooting I'm now at my updated system but with a f29 kernel 5.0.10-200.fc29.x86_64 I see installed the packages $ rpm -qa | grep kernel | grep 30 kernel-devel-5.0.11-300.fc30.x86_64 libreport-plugin-kerneloops-2.10.0-1.fc30.x86_64 kernel-modules-extra-5.0.11-300.fc30.x86_64 abrt-addon-kerneloops-2.12.0-2.fc30.x86_64 kernel-5.0.11-300.fc30.x86_64 kernel-modules-5.0.11-300.fc30.x86_64 kernel-headers-5.0.9-300.fc30.x86_64 kernel-tools-libs-5.0.9-300.fc30.x86_64 kernel-core-5.0.11-300.fc30.x86_64 How can I configure the kernel-5.0.11-300.fc30.x86_64?

f29 to f30 and grub config only memtest present
Hello, on a pc where I had both Windows 7 and Fedora 29, with boot loader configured in linux and grub2, I have run the update to Fedora 30 using the usual procedure described here, and already completed on another pc (but without the dual boot...): https://fedoramagazine.org/upgrading-fedora-29-to-fedora-30/ after the commad sudo dnf system-upgrade reboot I saw the laptop rebooting, installing all the about 9k packages, than verifying them and as soon as it had verified the last one, I saw again reboot (is it expected?), but then in grub options I only see memtest windows 7 windows 7 recovery environment So I think something went bad in updating grub2 config... Any hint on how to recover grub, eventually booting from a usb stick in any way? Already happened to anyone else with f29 to f30? I followed on the same laptop the same procedure without problems from f26 (or f27) to f29 until this problem.
