Hello Martin,

Firstly, thank you for your reply.

They are generated on the first execution of bootchooser and stored within the nv variables. Do you maybe accidentally overwrite the current values on startup with some script from the environment? (happened to me ^^^).

Actually, no. I did not intentionally set reset_attempts as an empty
string. As your recommend, while setting it as an empty string, I saw
that each boot time I am setting bootchooser variable from the state
framework:

nv bootchooser.system1.boot=$state.bootchooser.system1.boot
nv bootchooser.system1.default_attempts=$state.bootchooser.system1.default_attempts
nv bootchooser.system1.remaining_attempts=$state.bootchooser.system1.remaining_attempts
nv bootchooser.system1.default_priority=$state.bootchooser.system1.default_priority
nv bootchooser.system1.priority=$state.bootchooser.system1.priority

nv bootchooser.system2.boot=$state.bootchooser.system2.boot
nv bootchooser.system2.default_attempts=$state.bootchooser.system2.default_attempts
nv bootchooser.system2.remaining_attempts=$state.bootchooser.system2.remaining_attempts
nv bootchooser.system2.default_priority=$state.bootchooser.system2.default_priority
nv bootchooser.system2.priority=$state.bootchooser.system2.priority

I am now decreasing 1 from the state each boot time. After enough
unsuccessful attempts, it is disabled and never enabled again.

Thanks again.

Best Regards,
