extlinux.conf: No such file or directory - Fedora 34


Hi everyone!

I'm working on a Dell WYSE 3020 Thin Client following the instructions found here:

https://linux-mmp.docs.kernel.org/dell-wyse-3020.html

I'm trying to make the bootable USB stick, everything works until I get to the line:

cat >/mnt/efi/wloader.cfg <<EOF

I get an error: extlinux.conf: No such file or directory

Code:
cat >/mnt/efi/wloader.cfg <<EOF
> <TX0D_START>
>  kernel=./uImage
> initrd=./uInitrd
> param="$(sed -n 's/^[\t ]*append //p' /mnt/extlinux/extlinux.conf)"
> <TX0D_END>
> EOF
sed: can't read /mnt/extlinux/extlinux.conf: No such file or directory
I googled extlinux and it seems to be already installed on Fedora:

Code:
Package syslinux-extlinux-6.04-0.17.fc34.x86_64 is already installed.
I'm thinking of creating the directory and making making a extlinux.conf inside of it, but all of the examples that I have seen are different.

Does anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks!

Use command mount to see if you have something mounted.
