[Bug 895884] New: The 20140904 factory snapshot adds an extraneous "," to end of EFI subdirectory name
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=895884 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=895884#c0 Summary: The 20140904 factory snapshot adds an extraneous "," to end of EFI subdirectory name Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE Factory Version: 201409* Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Bootloader AssignedTo: jsrain@suse.com ReportedBy: nrickert@ameritech.net QAContact: jsrain@suse.com Found By: --- Blocker: --- User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:31.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/31.0 Background. In "/etc/default/grub", I have the line: GRUB_DISTRIBUTOR=betasuse That so that my factory install will use a different directory name in the EFI partition. Now, looking at the EFI partition, I see: # ls -l /boot/efi/EFI total 20 drwxrwxr-x 2 croot root 4096 Jul 10 11:37 arch drwxrwxr-x 2 croot root 4096 Mar 22 14:45 betasuse drwxrwxr-x 2 croot root 4096 Sep 1 09:21 betasuse, drwxrwxr-x 2 croot root 4096 Mar 23 13:56 Boot drwxrwxr-x 2 croot root 4096 Jul 20 10:03 opensuse That directory name "betasuse," looks like a bug to me. I had expected it to reuse the "betasuse" directory. On checking the output from "efibootmgr -v", I see (as one of the output lines): Boot0004* betasuse, HD(2,800,fa000,bf8f0c7b-6395-4d74-9c29-8731cbca231d)File(\EFI\betasuse,\grubx64.efi) That was the entry that I last booted from (I have since changed the order to what I want). In summary: I don't think that "," is supposed to be there.

And I see the same bogus comma (this time "factory," in place of "factory"). So it looks as if that bug crept in for 20140901. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

On checking more closely, I see that "grubx64.efi" was installed in directory "factory," and "shim.efi" was installed in "factory". So the bug is not in the shim-install, only in the grub2-install. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
