It works for me on a 2011 macmini. YMMV.


Ok, I'm ready to give it a try, but could you advise me which directory to use for grub.cfg?

Anaconda created a vfat partition on sda1 which is mounted under /boot/efi and an ext4 partition on sda2 mounted under /boot.
The grub.conf is located at /boot/efi/EFI/redhat/.
Should I let grub2-efi-mkconfig create grub.cfg under /boot/efi? Or should I mount sda1 as /boot an create the config file in /boot/grub2-efi then?

From memory:

grub-efi-install will probably install something like grubx64.efi in /boot/efi/EFI/grub 
So you keep the original grub.efi as a backup.
Config goes under /boot/grub2-efi/
grub2-efi-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2-efi/grub.cfg

This assumes you have a vfat partition with the /efI/EFI mounted under /boot which it seems you have.

I have used this myself on a mac booted in EFI mode
