Hello,
I've looked online in various places for an answer to this question, but have
not found anything that works. If this has been addressed, please feel free to
point me to the correct URL.
I am creating a custom installer to install the OS. I am modifying the
init-install-efi.sh script to include efibootmgr. I have a bbappend for
core-image-minimal-initramfs that has
PACKAGE_INSTALL:append = " efibootmgr efivar "
When I run my installer and it tries running the efibootmgr command, I get
EFI variables are not supported on this system.
It looks like the kernel-module-efivarfs is not included in the initramfs
image. If I try to add it as a PACKAGE_INSTALL:append or RDEPENDS:${PN}:append
statement or similar, the build fails with dnf error message of not being able
to find the kernel-module-efivarfs package.
The output of "zcat /proc/config.gz | grep EFI" when the install-efi.sh script
is running is as follows:
CONFIG_EFI=y
CONFIG_EFI_STUB=y
# CONFIG_EFI_MIXED is not set
CONFIG_EFI_PARTITION=y
CONFIG_DMI_SCAN_MACHINE_NON_EFI_FALLBACK=y
# EFI (Extensible Firmware Interface) Support
CONFIG_EFI_VARS=m
CONFIG_EFI_ESRT=y
CONFIG_EFI_RUNTIME_MAP=y
# CONFIG_EFI_FAKE_MEMMAP is not set
CONFIG_EFI_RUNTIME_WRAPPERS=y
CONFIG_EFI_GENERIC_STUB_INITRD_CMDLINE_LOADER=y
# CONFIG_EFI_BOOTLOADER_CONTROL is not set
# CONFIG_EFI_CAPSULE_LOADER is not set
# CONFIG_EFI_TEST is not set
# CONFIG_EFI_RCI2_TABLE is not set
# CONFIG_EFI_DISABLE_PCI_DMA is not set
# end of EFI (Extensible Firmware Interface) Support
CONFIG_EFI_EARLYCON=y
CONFIG_EFI_CUSTOM_SSDT_OVERLAYS=y
# CONFIG_PINCTRL_LAKEFIELD is not set
CONFIG_FB_EFI=y
CONFIG_EFIVAR_FS=y
# CONFIG_EFI_PGT_DUMP is not set
I have the following layers in the following order in my bblayers.conf file:
* poky/meta
* poky/meta-poky
* meta-intel
* meta-lewism
* meta-openembedded/meta-oe
* poky/meta-yocto-bsp
I am not doing anything with meta-secure-core at this time, but if that is
needed, I can add it.
In my local.conf file I have the following:
MACHINE = "intel-corei7-64"
MACHINE_FEATURES:append = " efi "
MACHINE_FEATURES_NATIVE:append = " efi "
DISTRO = "mydistro"
INITRAMFS_IMAGE = "core-image-minimal-initramfs"
IMAGE_FSTYPES = "live"
I have also added the following to my initramfs-module-install-efi_%.bbappend
file:
DEPENDS:append = " efibootmgr efivar "
RDEPENDED:${PN}:append = " efibootmgr efivar "
So, how do I get just kernel-module-efivarfs into my initramfs?
TIA,
Lewis Muhlenkamp
