Bazzite No Longer a Boot Option (for Dual Boot Windows/Bazzite on ROG Ally X)
Here is a little guide based on @Linus Xu and @phsxes
1. Identify the ESP
- Open the ESP (using EasyUEFI or by mounting it)
- Check the hash of the bootx64.efi file
It should be
49dda68626b94ea6185ddd8498b4a14892cbbfc8
2. Copy grub2 on ESP
- Download the 2 packages
https://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org//packages/grub2/2.12/15.fc41/x86_64/grub2-efi-x64-2.12-15.fc41.x86_64.rpm
https://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org//packages/shim/15.8/3/x86_64/shim-x64-15.8-3.x86_64.rpm
- Extract RPM packages and then the CPIO file.
- Copy the archives content of boot/efi/EFI/Fedora
on the ESP EFI/fedora
3. Start Bazzite
- Boot on Fedora, you should reach grub2 prompt
- Find the EXT* partition with ls
command, result should look like
- Type ls (hd0,gpt7)
for each partition to identify the correct one.
- Find the grub2 directory on the correct partition using ls (hd0,gpt7)/
, where you replace (hd0,gpt7)
by the partition you previously identified
- Type the following command
(also replace (hd0,gpt7)
here )
- Bazzite should boots up
4. Fix Bazzite boot
- Go in desktop and open a terminal
Identify the mount (line having /boot
, NOT boot/efi
)
- Get the mount UUID
where you replace /dev/nvme0n1p6
by the mount previously identified
- Create grub.cfg
- Put the following
Where <UUID>
is the value you got from the previous step.
This should be it. You can reboot to test it.462 replies

Ok, so basically, I just fix the second ESP using these steps then selecting it should no longer bring me into a bootloop, right?

I've tried to boot on the second EFI partition but it kept boot-lopping on a blue screen.
