[OPEN] Efibootmgr not removing boot entries in BIOS

[tnthomas]

I'm trying to clean up and remove old boot efi boot entries in the BIOS. I use efibootmgr in the manner described in this article: https://linuxconfig.org/how-to-manage-e ... s-on-linux
Running "efibootmgr" is terminal shows Boot0008* ubuntu, which I then give the instruction "sudo efibootmgr -b 8 -B" to remove. However, upon booting into the BIOS I still see the Ubuntu entry(see image link).

I haven't tried resetting the BIOS, not sure that would work anyway.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

That link you have referenced has a comments section, have you reviewed those ?

Use gparted and clean the disk from any previous installations.
That would be my approach if all of your efforts fail in the end.

I did, it was suggested that I update grub " grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg" but upon reboot the Ubuntu entry persists, in the BIOS.

Just do a clean install and all issues go away
