Right, I had forgotten about grub-hybrid. That complicates things. > What do you think about my direct grub patch? That works too :-) It just felt a little "heavy-handed". I'll let Ricardo judge which approach to take. I do wonder if we can do better though, and maybe even fix it properly. Ricardo: Can you post the output of `find /sys/firmware/efi -maxdepth 1` on the affected machine? With luck, we'll find a variable that is only present on "real" EFI. Can you also post the contents of '/sys/firmware/efi/runtime'? --=-=-= Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQEzBAEBCgAdFiEEu7At3yzq9qgNHeZDoqBt8qM6VPoFAlqO3HcACgkQoqBt8qM6 VPqSEgf/RuzsaZ8bFG4EfBDdBdPCVcPuHYr6udH50T/0jf/W7LIVj+4Twj1VU6gj H8m7Ev4UFFXbp95rlme2NDO2xAKq03R1S4UxZyMuaDonjwJo8lfvdyiYKD3tgFIx iTPakwHBWtvntTC63UPVHcD8/YX9V2FldN/3Ehs/a1YXn7qoCITjQ8aIDaFUtN/F lRkB3MS4iC0EYy2cbFpW9WfBtk7UxMRIfHrgwDmNIvs4RTpL1ijnXGl0HMxCqZ30 b+6/Jwb6LiJsU5pb1Y3svqGQztyJ3C4dj7Mp9/VfKEa2GXZyTAf/Pl6Rj2CWekSu VqrBEdxAndpgkymjL0jmnHTeyVtjyg== =dbJA -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-=-=--
