User_I6CNC

Hi

I have a raspberry pi. i had centos installed on there. now trying to port over to oracle linux

when i run this

 dnf install grub2-efi-aa64

i get

Error unpacking rpm package grub2-efi-aa64-1:2.02-90.0.1.el8.aarch64

 Cleanup     : grub2-tools-extra-1:2.02-87.0.1.el8_2.aarch64                                  6/9

error: unpacking of archive failed on file /boot/grub2/grubenv;5fe0a07a: cpio: symlink

error: grub2-efi-aa64-1:2.02-90.0.1.el8.aarch64: install failed

now I am stuck. I tried the version before same issue - quick google says / implies it because one of the directories is symlink .. its not

 ll /boot/ /boot/grub2 / /boot/grub2/grubenv -d

-rwxr-xr-x. 1 root root 1024 Dec 22 00:12 /boot/grub2/grubenv

So now what to do ?
