Hello. I have a problem with installing Debian 7.1 on a machine using UEFI. The machine does not boot after the installation, instead it shows:
Reboot and Select proper Boot device or Insert Boot Media in selected Boot device and press a key Just to test a different distribution I decided to blank the drive and installed Ubuntu 13.04 using UEFI. It worked just fine. Puzzled about this I blanked the drive again and reinstalled Debian, but with the same problem as before. I then booted the machine from the Debian install media, mounted the EFI boot partition from the shell and made a copy of the debian directory which I called ubuntu; the same name that Ubuntu used for the directory where it stored the boot loader. Maybe the machine was still somehow set to boot the Ubuntu boot loader. This time it worked. The machine booted into GRUB and successfully loaded Debian. Removing the ubuntu directory made the machine unable to boot again. This is the output from efibootmgr: # efibootmgr -v BootCurrent: 0000 Timeout: 0 seconds BootOrder: 0000,0001,0002,0003,0004 Boot0000* debian HD(1,800,f3800,cc9862e4-6391-4ba2-9105-2692e627993f)File(\EFI\debian\grubx64.efi) Boot0001* SATA : PORT 4 : TSSTcorp CDDVDW SH-222AB BIOS(3,0,00)AMBO Boot0002* SATA : PORT 6G 0 : INTEL SSDSC2CW180A3 : PART 0 : Boot Drive BIOS(2,0,00)AMBO Boot0003* SATA : PORT 6G 1 : INTEL SSDSC2CW180A3 : PART 0 : Boot Drive BIOS(2,0,00)AMBO Boot0004* UEFI : SATA : PORT 6G 0 : INTEL SSDSC2CW180A3 : PART 0 : OS Bootloader ACPI(a0341d0,0)PCI(1f,2)03120a000000ffff0000HD(1,800,f3800,cc9862e4-6391-4ba2-9105-2692e627993f)AMBO Secure boot is not enabled. Does anyone know why this happens or what I can do about it, apart from renaming the installed boot loader directory?
