Package: grub-efi Version: 1.99-26 Severity: important Tags: d-i I installed Debian Wheezy amd64 using the beta4 installer but also installed all updates since.
When I boot my computer, after grub the screen stays black. To reboot the computer I have to use the power or reset switch (a short button-press is enough in this case). This also happens when I try to boot to recovery mode. I re-installed debian just a few days ago. The previous installation was also performed with the Wheezy amd64 beta4 installer. I had the same issues, however, after a while they disappeared. I thought the solution was caused by installing some updates and/or the package "firmware-realtek" (see here: http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/64370/system-boots-only-with-cd- inserted) but in the meantime I am convinced that it was simply magic ;-) What may be interesting: The described boot-problem does *not* happen when (1) a data CD is inserted in the drive while the computer is booting (while the ASUS logo is displayed) or (2) I go to BIOS before I try to boot Here is some more information on my system: Mainboard: ASUS P8H77-I Processor: Intel Core i5-3470T Hard drives: 1x Samsung SSD 840 Pro Series 256GB Partitions: Disk /dev/sda: 500118192 sectors, 238.5 GiB Logical sector size: 512 bytes Disk identifier (GUID): <removed (I don't know if anyone could do something evil with that!?)> Partition table holds up to 128 entries First usable sector is 34, last usable sector is 500118158 Partitions will be aligned on 2048-sector boundaries Total free space is 226605677 sectors (108.1 GiB) Number Start (sector) End (sector) Size Code Name 1 2048 77823 37.0 MiB EF00 2 77824 78202879 37.3 GiB 0700 ROOT_PART 3 78202880 273514495 93.1 GiB 0700 HOME_PART 2x Western Digital AV-GP 2000GB, 64MB Cache, SATA II (WD20EURS) Partitions: Disk /dev/sdb: 3907029168 sectors, 1.8 TiB Logical sector size: 512 bytes Disk identifier (GUID): <removed (I don't know if anyone could do something evil with that!?)> Partition table holds up to 128 entries First usable sector is 34, last usable sector is 3907029134 Partitions will be aligned on 2048-sector boundaries Total free space is 2014 sectors (1007.0 KiB) Number Start (sector) End (sector) Size Code Name 1 2048 2099199 1024.0 MiB FD00 Linux RAID 2 2099200 3907029134 1.8 TiB FD00 Linux RAID CD-Drive: ASUS DRW-24B5ST RAM: G.Skill Sniper DIMM Kit 8GB PC3U-12800U CL9-9-9-24 (DDR3U-1600) Hope that helps to squash this bug.
