Patch for .EFI

mkefiboot now expect the bootloader to be BOOT.*EFI (all upper case). This patch should fix it for livecd-creator.

Comment 7 Fedora Blocker Bugs Application 2014-10-17 21:53:46 UTC
Proposed as a Blocker for 21-beta by Fedora user bcl using the blocker tracking app because:

 mkefiboot from lorax-21.25-1 requires that shim use all upper case. eg. BOOTX64.EFI

Without this fix livecd-creator will fail when using lorax >= 21.25-1

This is also related to bug 1043274 (which is what lorax was fixing)

Comment 8 Adam Williamson 2014-10-18 01:21:17 UTC
Um...so how did the TC4 compose work, then?

Comment 9 Kamil Páral 2014-10-20 16:56:47 UTC
Discussed in 2014-10-20 Blocker Review meeting [1]. Accepted as a blocker. This bug breaks UEFI booting which is an obvious violation of the Alpha criteria: "Release-blocking images must boot from all system firmware types that are commonly found on the primary architectures."

Comment 10 Fedora Update System 2014-10-20 18:40:39 UTC
livecd-tools-21.3-1.fc21 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 21.
https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/livecd-tools-21.3-1.fc21

Comment 11 Adam Williamson 2014-10-21 01:05:37 UTC
Correction to c#9: in fact this affects only Mac booting, not all UEFI booting. Still, we do expect Fedora to boot on Macs especially after Beta, so I don't think that needs to affect the determination.

I have tested an image created with livecd-tools, it does not display the mkmacboot error and appears to boot fine in both UEFI and BIOS mode on PCs (I don't have a Mac to test).

Comment 12 Adam Williamson 2014-10-21 01:05:58 UTC
that is, an image created with *the updated* livecd-tools.

Comment 14 Adam Williamson 2014-10-27 19:00:15 UTC
There is no mkefiboot error in the 21 Beta RC1 Workstation live compose log:

https://kojipkgs.fedoraproject.org//work/tasks/6143/7936143/root.log

so I'm gonna call this VERIFIED.
