@tahliar
there are two related but separated cases when a system boots with a UEFI boot loader:
With and without Secure Boot.
The previous text only described the case when a system boots with a UEFI boot loader without Secure Boot.
I suggest to add a separated text when a system boots with a UEFI boot loader with additional Secure Boot.
E.g. something like
* When your system is booted with UEFI.
If your system boots with a UEFI boot loader,
install the package ebiso
and add the following line
into /etc/rear/local.conf:
ISO_MKISOFS_BIN="/usr/bin/ebiso"
If your system boots with UEFI and Secure Boot
additionally add the following line
into /etc/rear/local.conf:
SECURE_BOOT_BOOTLOADER="/boot/efi/EFI/sles/shim.efi"
In general regarding boot loader
see the various ReaR configuration variables
about BOOTLOADER, UEFI and SECURE_BOOT
in /usr/share/rear/conf/default.conf
e.g. USING_UEFI_BOOTLOADER and others.
According to
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UEFI#SECURE-BOOT
and
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UEFI#Secure_Boot_criticism
the spelling is 'Secure Boot' (i.e. capitalized).
Thank you! I will add this in. |
