Dear Folks,
I tried to upgrade my Fedora 18 x86_64 on my Lenovo X121e laptop from grub-efi to grub2-efi with a failure to boot. I followed the wiki entry for Fedup, under "Updating GRUB".
From a rescue disk, I cannot run efibootmgr. The response is always, "Fatal: Couldn't open either sysfs or procfs directories for accessing EFI variables. Try "modprobe efivars" as root"
Now this has no visible effect. I have been unable to run efibootmgr. I would really appreciate some ideas on what I can do now to boot this machine.
