Uhhhhh.. I wanted legacy, not EFI.

What am I missing?

Are you doing this while booted in EFI or legacy mode?

Legacy.  It only boots in EFI mode.  I need both.

How are you booting in legacy mode if it doesn't work?

I am not.  That is what I am trying to get working.
That's why I asked the previous question which you answered wrong.  You
are trying to create a legacy grub config while booted in EFI mode.
That is not likely going to work.  You could try booting a netinst image
in legacy mode using the rescue option and try to fix it from there.  Or
even a regular live image booted in legacy mode.  You could boot the
ISOs using a VM as well.

Not certain this is still relevant but attached is what I did for F29
on an external USB stick.

What do you mean by?

change linuxefi > linux16,initrdefi > initrd16*

"linuxefi" does not exist in grub.cfg.  Neither does
linux16 or initrdefi
