   I got grub installed on the system, and am able to   
   boot into Slackware. For posterity these are the steps   
   I followed:   
   assume p1=efi partition type ef00 p2=boot partition type ef02 p3=target   
   partition ext4   
      
   In my case p1 was nvme0n1p1, p2 was mvme0n1p2, and p3 was nvme0n1p3   
      
      
   Steps to follow after install.   
   1. go into shell   
   2. cd to where p3 is mounted   
   3. mount --bind /proc proc;   
   4. mount --bind /proc/sys sys   
   5. mount --bind /dev/dev   
   6. chroot /p3 (where the linux partition is mounted).   
   7. mount  /dev/p1 /boot/efi   
   8. grub-mkconfig >/boot/grub/grub.cfg   
   9. grub-install --target=x86_64-efi --efi-directory=/boot/efi --   
   ootloader-id=GRUB --boot-directory=/boot   
      
   I had done almost exactly this several times, but   
   I had always eliminated step 7. If you don't have   
   step 7 you can get the error message "it doesn't look   
   like an efi partition to me, and if you merely copy   
   over the efi partition to /boot/efi you will get   
   the error message: cannot find the canonical path to   
   /boot/efi   
      
      
   Some, if not all these steps were given to me in   
   previous responses from attendees to this group.   
   I thank you all.
