Hi. Noob here.
Let's try this again, I've learned a little. Not much, but a little.
Installed Proxmox on an HP ML350 Gen 8 V 2. It does not support EFI (or secure boot).
I got the results outlined in the Host Boot Loader article in the wiki (except the EFI partition is a gig, not 512 MB).
Now I want to pass kernel parameters, so I edit /etc/default/grub and run grub-update as outlined in the section on GRUB.
The directory structure on the /boot partition evidently doesn't match what the update-grub script is expecting. Sure enough: no /boot/grub and I guess it won't create one.
Does this mean the installer doesn't make a "Synchronized ESP Partition" and I should make one myself by following the instructions under the head
Setting up a new partition for use as synced ESP?
proxmox-boot-tool init /dev/sda2 grub
proxmox-boot-tool refresh
then
edit /etc/defailt/grub
update-grub
