Description Neil Rickert 2015-10-05 16:03:58 UTC

I updated Tumbleweed to 20151002.

First system - grub distributor = "betasuse".  This went fine.

Second system (different partition on same box) - grub-distributor is empty.

It looks as if grub2-install did write the update to "/boot/efi/EFI/opensuse" as expected.

However, it looks as if shim-install wrote its update to "/boot/efi/EFI/grub" which was not expected.  It seems that shim-install doesn't know the new rules about empty distributor field.

Reproducible: Didn't try

Michael, would you mind to check if this is a duplicate of bsc#942519?
Comment 3 Michael Chang 2015-10-06 07:28:26 UTC 
Hi Neil, Gary,

Yes, it is. And just heard from Gary that the shim package update containing the fix in oS Factory is being blocked with waiting for Microsoft's new signature update. :(

FYI,

The new shim signature was submitted and was expected to be checked in to factory in a few days. The patch for shim-install will be there along with the update.
Comment 5 Gary Ching-Pang Lin 2015-10-12 02:13:59 UTC 
Shim 0.9 was checked into factory. Feel free to reopen this bug if it happens again.

openSUSE Tumbleweed, currently 20151123
shim-0.9-3.26.x86_64

My Acer Aspire 5 with efi boot still gets a third empty entry:
  opensuse-secureboot
And fail to boot w/o selecting either of the other menu entries:
  grub-secureboot
  windows boot manager

I have removed the empty menu item, opensuse-secureboot, but
updated shim packages restore the empty item.

Responding to Patrick at c#6

This bug really is fixed.  But you are still having problems due to
bug 950569 .  The fix for bug 950569 is known, but apparently still needs
a Microsoft signature before it can be released.  After that is done,
your boot entry for "opensuse-secureboot" should start working, and you
can then delete "grub-secureboot".
Comment 8 Gary Ching-Pang Lin 2015-12-16 03:42:13 UTC 
The updated shim shall already include the fix. Close this bug.
