Hi All,
Fedora-Xfce-Live-x86_64-30-20190329.n.0.iso
I am attempting to get a flash drive with Fedora and Xfce installed
on it to dual boot. This procedure worked under Fedora 29.
It boots fine from EUFI.
From legacy bios, it goes to "system setup"
What am I doing wrong?
Many thanks,
-T
This is my HowTo:

Requirements:
Fedora 29
Before installing, gparted:
Wipe the target disk
create a partition table as GPT
create a first partition as
1 Meg
unformatted
set the partition flag to "bios_grub"
Install Fedora 29 from a UEFI machine:
"/home" was removed at installation and moved into "/"
--->>> PRESUMED !!! <<<---
The machine was install and booted from UEFI
The machine is mounted as /dev/sda
Install the legacy BIOS boot loader:
Boot into fedora on UEFI
only installs 3 files
# dnf reinstall grub2-pc
create the BIOS .cfg file
# grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg
Note: if this complains, you forgot to create the partition above
# grub2-install --removable --recheck --target=i386-pc
--boot-directory=/boot /dev/sda
