When you installed to the external drive, it replaced the Fedora entry
in the EFI boot list to point to that instead of the internal drive.
Yes i understand that.
But unconnected drive and running grub2-mkinstall i thought, that an
Entry with my fedora 39 from infernal disk is generated. But it doesnt.

You have a Debian install on there as well?
Yes this is because i bought the laptop without Windows. The Debian
Entry just runs a Dokumentation of freedos, nothing else.

Is this with the external drive connected or not?
No without it.

Go into the BIOS and check the boot list. I'm wondering if you have a
Debian entry that is being used. You can also add another Fedora
entry that points to the internal hard drive.
Yes i have an Debian Entry and a Windows Bootmanager, but no fedora.
Before installing fedora Jam i Bad three: Debian, Windows and fedora.
And fedora was in the first place, so it starts from there.
But how could i insert a New Entry? I think, the BIOS does not
recognize the fedora one, or it is not there.
If i can install the Boot loader for fedora, then it will work again.
But how could i do that?

From your earlier note that you could boot fedora from the bios, do
that. Then with privilege run efibootmgr. You will see the boot order
and the list of entries. The usb drive is probably the first in the
order and fedora down the list. You can use an editor to create a text
of the boot order with a reordered list with fedora 2nd. The command
"efibootmgr -o <list>" will write the new order to the bios.
