I have installed rEFInd to use on my desktop, which I am dual-booting Ubuntu and Windows 10. In the past, I have simply ran refind-install and refind-mkdefault, and it has worked perfectly.
However, I have recently re-installed and there are now 2 entries for EFI/ubuntu/grubx64.efi detected by rEFInd. So, when it shows the menu there are 2 identical Ubuntu entries. But, the problem is that one of them drops me to a grub prompt and the other actually boots ubuntu.
They are identical, even to rEFInd, because rEFInd is supposed to boot the last-booted OS unless you change at startup, but it mixes them up (i.e. if I reboot after selecting the real Ubuntu option, it will automatically boot to the grub shell instead)
Has anyone had this problem or know how to fix it?
sudo efibootmgr -vandlsblk -o name,mountpoint,label,size,fstype,uuid,partuuid | egrep -v "^loop"Show? Compare GUID in efibootmgr to partUUID (GUID) in lsblk. Some may be from old partition that does not exist? https://askubuntu.com/questions/1198221/cloned-ssd-also-cloned-boot-options/1198228#1198228 orman efibootmgr– oldfred Jun 07 '21 at 21:11
