@troubleMoney grub2-install: error: /usr/lib/grub/x86_64-efi/modinfo.sh doesn't exist. Please specify --target or --directory

@troubleMoney the CentOS installation disk emergency shell is where I'm trying to do this from

@troubleMoney I was trying to get a SparkyLinux dvd to boot and someone suggested temporarily switching to legacy boot to just see if that's the problem and not installing under it.

I did that, and the dvd didn't boot so I changed back and grub was just gone.

@troubleMoney grub just doesn't show up.

It's not in my UEFI settings boot order. Goes straight to windows.

@troubleMoney well that seemed to do nothing at all.

the rescue mode had me chroot to mount my partition, that woun't change anything?

@troubleMoney okay hopefully last question

since I'm using centos and not redhat, would I change /boot/efi/EFI/redhat/grub.cfg to /boot/efi/EFI/centos/grub.cfg?

Other grub guides explicity for centos do it this way but it's a deviation from the repair guide

@troubleMoney thank you based Sam

had to do a little DNS stuff but nmtui was a lifesaver

@troubleMoney christ, I think this guide assumes I have a network connection because I have to yum stuff :D

@troubleMoney it's giving me "cannot remove, (x) is a directory" errors

@troubleMoney should I -r that first rm command?

@troubleMoney CentOS 7. I just wanted to make sure I wasn't using a guide to do a different thing, my reading comprehension goes down as my stress goes up

https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_enterprise_linux/7/html/system_administrators_guide/sec-reinstalling_grub_2

i nuked my grub, is this guide safe? rm-ing anything I don't understand entirely is scary
