This is not true. The only problem you will have with this setup is that
you will need to install and/or configure the bootloader manually.

Do you mean 3rd party bootloader (e.g. grub)? I was responding to "AIUI UEFI/GPT were designed to support multi-boot". Custom configuration of grub (earlier lilo) was possible before UEFI and GPT.

Erwan posted directory tree for debian+ubuntu ESP, but it is a case of different vendors. Richard wants 2 variants of Debian (however UEFI may be irrelevant to that machine). I was experimenting trying to get 2 entries from the same vendor in the UEFI (firmware) boot menu and found it tricky and inconvenient.

When I noticed that news, I was curious if there is an alternative command to "efi-readvar -v PK" since I do not have the tool installed. It is

    efi-readvar -v PK

I found it in

The issue that is rather similar at first glance was filed 3.5 years before the latest discovery.
