BTW .. it does not fail on every install .. so it might work w/o the new update. However, no need to chance it at this point. Wait until the new shim is there and install it and reinstall the kernel is my advise.
Here's what I get... rpm -qa | grep shim shim-x64-15-7.el7_9.x86_64 yum update Loaded plugins: fastestmirror, langpacks, priorities Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile * base: mirror.fileplanet.com * epel: mirror.prgmr.com * extras: mirror.shastacoe.net * remi-php73: mirror.sjc02.svwh.net * remi-safe: mirror.sjc02.svwh.net * updates: centos-distro.1gservers.com 373 packages excluded due to repository priority protections No packages marked for update Should I just wait for 15-8 to appear?
