[oS-EN] Something is changing the EFI boot order on me.
Hi, I did a maintenance routine update (Leap 15.4), and on reboot, the machine did not boot the main system, but the auxiliary one. I couldn't boot the main one from its grub menu, another error. On entry, I run "efibootmgr -v" and I see that the "main-os" entry was not in the "BootOrder". So I edit it back, and reboot. I also did an update of this auxiliary system, which is running 15.2. So I get to boot the "main" system, then I reboot again, and choose in the "bios" to boot the auxiliary system to let it purge kernels. I run again "efibootmgr -v", by chance, and see that the order is, again, altered (sorry about line wrap):
Andor:~ # efibootmgr -v BootCurrent: 0001 Timeout: 1 seconds BootOrder: 0003,0000,0001 Boot0000* main-os-secureboot HD(1,GPT,800b649f-a2e3-4dad-b2bf-b7ecc5ef11d8,0x800,0xfa000)/File(\EFI\MAIN-OS\SHIM.EFI) Boot0001* auxiliary-secureboot HD(1,GPT,800b649f-a2e3-4dad-b2bf-b7ecc5ef11d8,0x800,0xfa000)/File(\EFI\AUXILIARY\SHIM.EFI) Boot0003* UEFI OS HD(1,GPT,800b649f-a2e3-4dad-b2bf-b7ecc5ef11d8,0x800,0xfa000)/File(\EFI\BOOT\BOOTX64.EFI)..BO Andor:~ #
Who has put first the entry number 3? It can not boot, it contains an ancient BOOTX64.EFI. So I put it back: Andor:~ # efibootmgr --bootorder 0000,0001,0003 BootCurrent: 0001 Timeout: 1 seconds BootOrder: 0000,0001,0003 Boot0000* main-os-secureboot Boot0001* auxiliary-secureboot Boot0003* UEFI OS Andor:~ # I will now send this email, hope to boot "main-os" and check again the boot order. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E.

Your UEFI BIOS probably did that. When the first choice fails to boot, it uses that as a fallback. You can manually update that by copying the "shim.efi" from your main boot to replace the "BOOTX64.EFI". You may also need to copy "fallback.efi" and "MokManager.efi". Or remove "fallback.efi" from that directory and copy "grub.efi", "MokManager.efi" and "grub.cfg" from the main boot. If booting is failing because of the recent kernel update, then you willl need to boot the previous kernel.

No. Then it would happened every day for years. It started to happen today, after an openSUSE update.

That, yes.

Perhaps it did happen every time, but you didn't notice. When that happens, "fallback.efi" is supposed to kick in to fix it. And you might not have noticed that this was going on. May I suggest that you disable secure-boot in your BIOS until you get this working. OpenSUSE 15.2 uses secure-boot signature from the openSUSE CA, while 15.3 and 15.4 use signatures from the SUSE CA. So there could be an incompatibility there. This is supposed to be handled by enrolling a certificate. But that may have failed because you did not have "MokManager.efi" in the directory used for our Boot0003.

Those are likely to be okay.

But they are identical with the files from 15.4, as verified using "md5sum". The "bootx64.efi" is identical with the "shim.efi" from 15.4.

Either they should all come from 15.2 or they should all come from 15.4. Mixing doesn't work. I have a Lenovo system (not my main desktop) which always wants to control the boot order. I can change the boot order with "efibootmgr" but it reverts on the next boot. But the BIOS settings do allow changing the boot order that the BIOS wants. You might have something similar happening. If your 15.4 system happens to have kernel "5.14.21-150400.24.49" and if it uses Intel graphics, then it might not boot. However kernel "5.14.21-150400.24.46" should boot fine.

It wouldn't boot, if it tried that directory, has the wrong files. That's what happened, tried to boot from it, failed, then switched to boot "auxiliary", which is 15.2 In fact, it has been altered again (after two hibernation cycles), but differently:

Telcontar:~ # ls /boot/efi/EFI/ auxiliary boot main-os Telcontar:~ # l /boot/efi/EFI/ Now "auxiliary" and "boot" are gone from the efi list. It is booting "main-os" which happens to be the correct one. No idea what 0001 would be and what wrong device path is that one.

I don't mix. I don't create nor ever touch that directory. I don't know how to tell the system to create it again. There should be a command to do it?

Hum. Maybe.

No, this machine has AMD graphics.

My guess is that the bios wanted to boot /boot/efi/EFI/boot because the partition filesystem was corrupt. So, the question is, what creates the "/boot/efi/EFI/boot" directory, how to repopulate it? I'm googling for: what creates "fallback.efi" in opensuse The wiki says that it is created on the first installation. No mention so far of what command creates it, how to recreate it so that it works correctly. https://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:UEFI https://en.opensuse.org/Systemd-boot This one finally gives some information, on comment 12: <https://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/linux-hardware-18/reinstating-boot-efi-partition-lost-on-a-fried-ssd-4175662885/> and points to <https://www.rodsbooks.com/efi-bootloaders/fallback.html> for more information. But there were no answer to his questions, so no subsequent instructions. He wanted: $ sudo efibootmgr -v $ ls -lR /boot/efi The explanation at <https://www.rodsbooks.com/efi-bootloaders/fallback.html> is nice, but the description it does of "BOOT.CSV" doesn't match openSUSE, because apparently it should be a text file in UCS-2 or UTF-16, and what I see appears a binary. There must be a susefied method somewhere of repairing/recreating this emergency directory. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 15.4 x86_64 at Telcontar)
