No, EFI is not the root cause either. The root cause is carelessly
storing stuff in the bootloader area as if it was part of the
standard Linux filesystem. Guess what ? It is not.
LSB is dead
LSB has nothing to do with this.
fine, so nobody else but you knows what "part of standard Linux
filesystem" means
I mean
- POSIX-compliant filesystem. A Linux operating system usually expects
features such as case-sensitiveness, ownership and permissions, hard
links and symlinks, special files... which are not supported by an EFI
partition FAT filesystem.
- A standard Linux system can be installed on top of any block device
layer supported by the kernel+initramfs and the boot loader (RAID, LVM,
LUKS...). An EFI partition cannot because these are not supported by
UEFI firmware.
initramfs execution is completly irrelevant for the topic
Why they did you agree that it was a fine place to sync EFI partitions ?
i did not
You did in <acc6add5-347b-7ecb-f6e9-056d21783984@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>.
I'm not talking about that. I'm talking about other boot loader
updates that may happen independently of kernel updates
which is the reason why multi-boot is dead
I am not talking about multi-boot. I am talking about boot loader
components such as GRUB, shim... They get updates too, and then all EFI
partitions should be updated.
