Bug #35917
Updated by Zailo Leite over 2 years ago
"linuxefi"and "initrdefi" are not avaliabel in RHEL8, Once foreman-installer copies grubx64.efi from the foreman host (supposedly RHEL8 on current foreman) to /var/lib/tftpboot/grub2 provisioning and discovery PXE GRUB2 boot fails. Since foreman in RHEL7 is deprecated the references to "linuxefi"and "initrdefi" should be removed from teh templates.
Example patch:
