Booting from either DVD or live KDE image, the boot stops at "loading kernel". If I disable secure boot, then the installer boots. The installed Beta1 likewise will not boot unless secure-boot is disabled. If I edit "grub.cfg" and change "linuxefi" to "linux" and "initrdefi" to "initrd", then I can boot with secure-boot enabled. This seems to be either a grub2-efi bug with "linuxefi" or a kernel bug that is triggered when called from the efi interface. -- 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.

Boot using shim when secure boot is disabled in firmware?

That works.

Boot using installed grub.efi directly but using linuxefi/initrdefi when secure boot is disabled in firmware?

That also works. I tried one additional test. I have 12.3 on the same system. I updated "grub.cfg" for 12.3, so that it has an entry for 13.1Beta1. That entry uses "linuxefi" and "initrdefi". With secure-boot enabled, I tried booting 13.1 via the grub2-efi for 12.3. It reports that the 13.1 kernel does not have a valid signature. I'm aware that Linus Torvalds was opposed to signing kernels. So perhaps the way signature are or are-not handled is changed for the 3.11 kernels. I'm wondering if what we are seeing is related. -- 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.

It should work other way round though - booting 12.3 with 13.1 shim.

Unfortunately, I cannot check that. My 12.3 system is mostly inside an encrypted LVM, so updating grub.cfg on 13.1 does not add an entry to boot it. I have tried # cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/sdb3 cr_lvm # vgscan The "cryptsetup" seems to be find, but "vgscan" fails to find an LVM inside. I guess that's another bug report I'll need to file. -- 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.

I'll check again tomorrow, when I'm the only one home. I did try repeating this on a different computer (non-UEFI) where I also have 13.1Beta installed, with 12.3 in an encrypted lvm. # vgscan that does not give any output. # vgchange -a y that reports that no mountable devices (flash memory) are available However: # ls /dev/mapper shows that the LVM is now accessible. It seems that "vgscan" and "vgchange" have gone all silent on me, but are still silently doing their thing. I'll probably still report that as a bug.

Try

echo GRUB_CRYPTODISK_ENABLE=y >> /etc/default/grub

Probably "GRUB_CRYPTODISK_ENABLE=y grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg" I could be wrong, but I encountered some problem if setting GRUB_CRYPTODISK_ENABLE=y in /etc/default/grub. Can't recall what exactly the problem is. And GRUB_CRYPTODISK_ENABLE seems to be environment variable to grub2-mkconfig by design .. as it affects grub-mkconfig_lib, unlike options in /etc/default/grub which mostly affects the scripts in /etc/grub.d/... Well these are really minor and trivial tricks that a "user" should care about, I'd like this option (and boot with encrypted /boot) be enabled per default, probably in 13.2. -- 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.

In case of USB one can just copy shim to USB, right? This would allow testing before RC1, to make sure it is really fixed.

Yes. But you'll still need to disable secure boot as the binaries are not signed and use linuxefi/initrdefi instead of linux/initrd for testing.

@ Ulf Michel, reference Comment#45, when you say computer did not reboot, do you mean openSUSE-13.1 RC1 would not reboot, but Windows8 kept rebooting ?

1st speculation - If Windows-8 kept rebooting, in Windows-8 did you try " bcdedit /set {bootmgr} path \EFI\opensuse\shim.efi " (or something similar with appropriate directory (I don't know how relevant) to see if that helps.

2nd speculation - Also did you try to in Sony's BIOS, change a setting, save, shutdown. Go back into BIOS, change setting back, save, and then see if reboot to openSUSE recognized. I read of a case with an Asus where something similar needed.

Both above speculations are based on reading other threads on UEFI in forums and possibly not relevant.

Windows did also not boot. The computer started with options to change BIOS or to start Windows repair from external drive. I changed in BIOS booting from external to internal drive but this did not help. (I currently cannot access the boot menu because I perform a complete Windows System backup on DVD - this is the way accepted by the boot menu for repairing the Windows installation - before my next install attempt.) In my despair, I also tried to use legacy mode to install 13.1 on the whole available SSD (and run Windows in virtual mode KVM). But even this did not work. I had to use the install CDROM to start the installed system.

FWIW my private Sony Laptop at home seems to have hardcoded the location of the Windows bootloader.

I had to move the file to a different location and load if from there via grub2. Requires manual configuration of grub2 of course :( Windows seems to be happy with that so far. Until they update their bootloader I guess.

After my newest install (Linux on USB HDD) Windows 8 boots well, but not so Linux. I have to boot with the install USB-Stick (on sdb). The installer fails to locate the installed system on sdc.

*** Bug 846831 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***

I have secure boot disabled but still grub says "Loading kernel ..." "error: Can't read kernel /boot/x86_64/loader/linux." "Loading initial ramdisk ..." "error: you need to load the kernel first." so not sure this is really a duplicate. Note that the Beta1 medium had the very same issue. -- 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.

Further to Comment #44, but instead with a 64-bit openSUSE-13.1 RC2 KDE on a USB stick, my colleague with a Sony Pro 13 Ultraboot has reported that the Sony boots ok to 13.1 RC2 (where it would not boot with 13.1-beta1 nor with 13.1 RC1). Hence there appears to be an improvement between RC1 and RC2. Many thanks for your efforts here.

My colleague has not yet decided if they will install 13.1 RC2 on the Ultrabook in a dual boot with Windows-8.0. If there are any developments that I learn about, I'll post them here.

I tried KDE live 64 bit from a DVD, which offers to boot the installed system on my Sony Ultrabook, but when trying to start the installed system in this way, it results in the message error: file '/EFI/Boot/bootx64.efi' not found. But the file does exist in the EFI partition. -- 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.
