The issue was not present in the version in buster (the variable simply did not get written) and can be worked around by adding --graceful to the `bootctl install` command. see also: https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/13603 Signed-off-by: Stoiko Ivanov --- originally sent as part of a series: https://lists.proxmox.com/pipermail/pve-devel/2022-March/052054.html as: https://lists.proxmox.com/pipermail/pve-devel/2022-March/052052.html however since the issue is really unrelated to the series, and causes (more) issues for systems with (certain) broken UEFI systems I'm resending it isolated of the series (which IIRC is a bit too large to integrate currently) bin/proxmox-boot-tool | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/bin/proxmox-boot-tool b/bin/proxmox-boot-tool index fb4e320..6c0ae4f 100755 --- a/bin/proxmox-boot-tool +++ b/bin/proxmox-boot-tool @@ -153,7 +153,7 @@ init() { if [ -d /sys/firmware/efi ]; then echo "Installing systemd-boot.." mkdir -p "$esp_mp/$PMX_ESP_DIR" - bootctl --path "$esp_mp" install + bootctl --graceful --path "$esp_mp" install echo "Configuring systemd-boot.." echo "timeout 3" > "$esp_mp/$PMX_LOADER_CONF.tmp" -- 2.30.2
