Hyperbola install in UEFI mode
******************************

Was trying to install hyperbola on my Lenovo Z50-70 and struggling
when using the Beginner Installation instructions for hyperbola. Got
lucky with the Arch Linux wiki that was suggested on the hyperbola
wiki. Just had to add some steps from Arch Linux wiki for UEFI mode

Disk formatting and partition
=============================

EFI partition
-------------

Assuming disk to install on is sda

# cfdisk /dev/sda

512M            EFI
3.7G            Linux swap              (Use < 1/2 RAM)
The rest        Linux filesystem


Format
------

Assuming EFI is sda1, swap is sda2 and filesystem is sda3

# mkfs.ext4 /dev/sda3
# mkfs.fat -F 32 /dev/sda1
# mkswap /dev/sda2
# swapon /dev/sda2

Mount
-----

# mount /dev/sda3 /mnt
# mkdir /mnt/boot
# mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/boot

Grub install
============

On my pc

# grub-install \
       --target=x86_64-efi --recheck /dev/sda --efi-directory=/boot
