[Bug 806490] New: live-installer does not put EFI: 1 in install.inf
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=806490 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=806490#c0 Summary: live-installer does not put EFI: 1 in install.inf Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 12.3 Version: RC 1 Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: P5 - None Component: YaST2 AssignedTo: jsrain@suse.com ReportedBy: fehr@suse.com QAContact: jsrain@suse.com Found By: Development Blocker: --- yast2-storage relies on the KEY "EFI" in /etc/install.inf to determine if the system has an EFI BIOS and therefore it needs to propose /boo/efi with vfat filesystem as boot partition. YaST2 client live-installer.ycp does not provide this information. Therefore installation from a live CD will not propose a /boot/efi as boot partition. So the installed system cannot be booted if it uses a EFI BIOS. This is not a new problem, but since with secure boot lots of system will use an EFI bios and for these installation from live CD will fail, it gets more urgent with 12.3. Jiri, I assign this to you since you did last changes in changelog.
