Usually, running grub-install is sufficient to +ensure this. + +On the UEFI platform, grub-install allows the core image to be placed in +two different locations: + +EFI/gentoo/grubx64.efi +This is the location used by grub-install without options. + +EFI/BOOT/BOOTX64.EFI +This is the location used by grub-install --removable. + +On upgrades, it is common for users to mismatch the grub-install options +they used for the current and previous versions of grub. This will cause +a stale core image to exist. For example: + +/boot/efi/EFI/BOOT/BOOTX64.EFI (grub 2.06 core image) +/boot/efi/EFI/gentoo/grubx64.efi (grub 2.12 core image) +/boot/grub/x86_64-pc/*.mod (grub 2.12 modules) + +Booting this system using BOOTX64.EFI image would likely fail due to a +symbol mismatch between the core image and modules. [1] + +Re-runing grub-install both with and without the --removable option +should ensure a working GRUB installation. + +However, this will clobber any BOOTX64.EFI image provded by other +loaders. If dual-booting using another boot loader, users must take care +not to replace BOOTX64.EFI if it is not provided by GRUB. + +References: +[1] https://bugs.gentoo.org/920708 diff --git a/metadata/news/Manifest b/metadata/news/Manifest index f0a3e4c124b7..1fa139b2f96e 100644 --- a/metadata/news/Manifest +++ b/metadata/news/Manifest @@ -1,23 +1,23 @@ -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA512 -MANIFEST Manifest.files.gz 16774 BLAKE2B ed416333926a9fe0721bf3da756de979e32af66063afb31a950e2b0daf08f3fd1a27a1ced8e455df1c828b942751dc6e34892cce8511c25a3b85bab4355df9b1 SHA512 f96ab3d2cec302b632eb487f8a13600ce7a3723e8bfb8e150982e1f30e0cbcb7fe4e3b2aadda862314624c70d2d3282c7d32c68402f17e3f9e80983fd90f91e8 -TIMESTAMP 2024-02-05T23:10:05Z +MANIFEST Manifest.files.gz 16951 BLAKE2B d87120a7cb70f67c2f5da130618a093b90f6e74520076a743adc9c690927a40314e19d5660ec5d9a4c5653aab3ccc5e728e35a3e89a4a32f1b8d1351c07c1be4 SHA512 170624a794884ee83cfe6e89e636e8dea77510e5d4a659e638976ea36c8eb1e009a60526f88ee7f621d2c363f6c1c31e811ab0694b326f63b506497c7a1f99c8 +TIMESTAMP 2024-02-06T04:45:55Z -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- -iQKTBAEBCgB9FiEE4dartjv8+0ugL98c7FkO6skYklAFAmXBas1fFIAAAAAALgAo +iQKTBAEBCgB9FiEE4dartjv8+0ugL98c7FkO6skYklAFAmXBuYRfFIAAAAAALgAo aXNzdWVyLWZwckBub3RhdGlvbnMub3BlbnBncC5maWZ0aGhvcnNlbWFuLm5ldEUx RDZBQkI2M0JGQ0ZCNEJBMDJGREYxQ0VDNTkwRUVBQzkxODkyNTAACgkQ7FkO6skY -klCNRg/8CXkgM5u4ensjRADK2eVvphKVh31DX1D5yifUOrKG8g9Qywsh3lPc+/CI -Jg8l1Vqefk/7RpN6TpmFRrx3jzxQJuPIJ4IGG4KwJMnkRg9ij2wNmoq+t3I4miVn -eLgWduz83zHDVPiv35W+rsD40hoUf0WZlprsqCbZO8FO8ru8zmltfBhKaBt6pM4a -8EeKCKXExpXaCN6ghU+eYi55KWEmcpxTUVfsCog+04xbu1/Fi9NAZJ/+0Nd5fXkf -gxxdgNOFOmhl4ERB+NsQd0yRPggpBzgYbloNx6iPBO+2WcP6bpQQUho3nzVrKdaS -yv4i67vHJR2SL/TT9ka6pzo7Dip+e2qpo7FHHYtUPmk1fGtvgnrqFITHnUMdshN+ -T1ZpR1fkoiupzYiN0thL1x2xk8LVylQQ1r6SC+6YaDq4egQeG7QMQ0iGxd1UbvQ8 -fBTgKFUrg944QATEtAlIo0bmRZ21jtDTXDf3BXXXnWo6gpV5JYBTLEHTdpXeELzR -jA3WUiC8bxZ2LggJltsp8/MgSsdhLW7MZyxjxSCK6TTSiZADPalh7LSgEvhlE7UG -sn5Vi0aIIHW2gv7nGQ4olNCrQbOTfHVEKaR8I5Q6azSP2kHuEFLX8Rc2sLllEL+8 -hdn21WOJtpkEiR8D1lxejtWvU+ZPP4kO+mUunePAoFXE5Sb/NPc= -=bIqy +klDrDw/7BQK+s9qmN5OYIOqLKvDiICSrX+o+6xG2QbTJqyutLcdApFhlrTQYOm8H +b7y/5Vkog2IrQT0F6TlVVVSIK2m8NJqUUL+sf/A+yn0ftjl7eDgUYukiu8/LeOwl +S9+IcFJs5h+dBqgKIVLr7DfKJR8M2M5JJwkRLRLtLsgaXOH2PMuoTRpbSk1gMQYX +7h4jluejFTcfTG/+uVrb+zHbuwOdp/AVngFJTNP4A1m/8m1vRFHiqHDQCzUZRGQw +i8M5GRuiV6GQHEjxp5V/QZAXKd88tN9KTznQZ4ZUp06LrBt0CMqHASSg/Auc8oV0 +uKMDDAqalSal16dnNrY2aR3/Jw41udW0QJ26PnLYt3/l78vBsHfoXBAUk/MpizOX +XBJvZJI9oMnfe9BHiwH9JsMtfgiGBZMSFrN6B76Ear3/E3KDToq/viXFzVC0NuMt +ROyoAeoiV9FNdv2DalhICAmduFrzTdwsLnPrhbnn7P0omYtVqTXmm1+/xgJvEZS3 +L4jGxNMepBl3UuPy6iWQ2WvozaE+EjxDN3kkOaJ/KJvtj8CD9Xsc1P+fBqX6bmpg +NNr2NDbSNYigpWDZ2NlV6oNDFbI+dYx9W6lIz4+do6UP3PntDtiTqGsmUOK1CqAC +lcy6THNjdxv8cucwSJVYcz8ndmrdL4m9SoWSNK3Ultiq43omnpg= +=a2CT -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- diff --git a/metadata/news/Manifest.files.gz b/metadata/news/Manifest.files.gz Binary files differindex 99500e02070a..2ec8fe97cdf4 100644 --- a/metadata/news/Manifest.files.gz +++ b/metadata/news/Manifest.files.gz diff --git a/metadata/news/timestamp.chk b/metadata/news/timestamp.chk index 1551e4c9b895..50db34da55f5 100644 --- a/metadata/news/timestamp.chk +++ b/metadata/news/timestamp.chk @@ -1 +1 @@ -Mon, 05 Feb 2024 23:10:02 +0000 +Tue, 06 Feb 2024 04:45:52 +0000 diff --git a/metadata/news/timestamp.commit b/metadata/news/timestamp.commit index b40a6090a091..c4f722081ddb 100644 --- a/metadata/news/timestamp.commit +++ b/metadata/news/timestamp.commit @@ -1 +1 @@ -0803a532d7bd76f02c0f633f9441210f33735594 1706855177 2024-02-02T06:26:17+00:00 +65b494db54e9228fbb4dd0c647f9dd11998c3f4c 1707177697 2024-02-06T00:01:37+00:00 |
