 I'm on an x86_84 EFI boot machine running NetBSD-11 and when I boot up
 it has the "Install Boot" banner instead of the ascii flag and "Welcome

 copying /usr/mdec/bootx64.efi to /EFI/BOOT/BOOTX64.EFI at someone's
 suggestions but that wasn't it.

 Anybody have any ideas for me?

Mount  your  efi partition and look at ${EFI}boot.cfg for the
"banner" lines...

I don't see any cfg files.

/mnt/EFI 1029 % find .
.
./BOOT
./BOOT/BOOTIA32.EFI
./BOOT/BOOTX64.EFI
./BOOT/FBIA32.EFI
./BOOT/FBX64.EFI
./FEDORA
./FEDORA/GRUB.CFG
./FEDORA/BOOTIA32.CSV
./FEDORA/BOOTX64.CSV
./FEDORA/GCDIA32.EFI
./FEDORA/GCDX64.EFI
./FEDORA/GRUBIA32.EFI
./FEDORA/GRUBX64.EFI
./FEDORA/MMIA32.EFI
./FEDORA/MMX64.EFI
./FEDORA/SHIM.EFI
./FEDORA/SHIMIA32.EFI
./FEDORA/SHIMX64.EFI
./Dell
./Dell/BootOptionCache
./Dell/BootOptionCache/BootOptionCache.dat

I guess I can delete the FEDORA directory now but that's all I see.
