Apologize for the delay..
The efivars error exists even when I have 'efibootmgr' running ok. There was an
update that locked out my firmware again. efibootmgr returns nothing (I guess
because the boot entry/order setting in NVRAM has been erased and is empty). I
created a new entry for refind and efibootmgr returns..
BootOrder: 0000
Boot0000* rEFInd
but dmesg still has the error
[ 0.821512] efivars: get_next_variable: status=8000000000000002
But this does not persist. On reboot, only ubuntu's grub loads (can't
get to rEFInd or CD/DVD or anything).
Should this bug be reported against 'efibootmgr'?
On every update of the package, my firmware gets erased. And the only boot
entry is the one 'efibootmgr' ran from (in my case, it is either Ubuntu or
Elementary).
