Persistent files in /boot after fresh install
by J1tterBug from LinuxQuestions.org on (#6HJ07)
I had installed Slackware 15.0 several times on my UEFI PC, and have several files remain under /boot that are not part of the Slackware tree.
I re-partitioned in an attempt to delete all files off HD, then ran a fresh install but the files are still there. Most of which are past attempts at customzing ELILO, breaking it, and running ELILOCONFIG, so there are replicate init/efi files under /boot, boot/efi, boot/efi/EFI, then finally /boot/efi/EFI/Slackware where they actually belong
Maybe an MBR partition i cannot wipe clean?
