I recently uninstalled Ubuntu 16.04 and installed Peppermint 7 instead,I had a few problems with grub not showing but fixed it by running bcdedit /set {bootmgr} path \EFI\ubuntu\grubx64.efi
in admin cmd prompt as mentioned in this post.
However I have a lot of weird options on grub(2) now...
(Previously had only 4 which were Ubuntu, Ubuntu with adv conf., windows boot manager and system setup).
Now I have:
- Peppermint GNU/Linux
- Advanced options for Peppermint GNU/Linux
- Windows UEFI bootmgfw.efi
- Windows Boot UEFI loader
- EFI/Ubuntu/fwupx64.efi
- EFI/Ubuntu/MokManager.efi
- EFI/toshiba/Boot/bootmgfw.efi
- Windows Boot manager (on /dev/sda/2)
- System setup
I understand the first and last two, but what is all this UEFI/boot manager paths in between, and should I/how can I remove any of them (if there are unnecessary ones).
Edit:
