no autom. boot Uefi boot Dell Latitude E6410

#1 Post by Beuntje »

I just installed Debian jessie on my Dell Latitude E6410 using the UEFI install.
No everything went well during the install, but after the install the first boot i ran into an issue that the laptop will not boot.

When I go in to the boot menu of the Dell Latitude E6410, I see that debian has created a uefi name (Debian)
when i select this, it boots without any issues.
After again a reboot again, no luck still a black screen during the boot.

Seems that the only option to get my laptop booting is by pressing F12 and select Debian in the UEFI boot of the laptop.

Is there any way i can get my laptop to boot Debian directly from UEFI, without having to press F12??
(Also disabled all legacy devices to start up but no luck)

- Debian Jessie X64 (Using 32/64 network install, via USB)
- Dell Latitude E6410 i5 (1280x800 intel graphics) latest bios A16
- SSD drive (Samsung 470 series)
- Debian is the only OS installed

Boot debian.
Open terminal or get into tty2 or so by pressing CTRL+ALT+F2 or so.
Get root privilege by executing "su -" and inputting root password.
Execute

Code: Select all

efibootmgr -v
find /boot/efi -iname *.efi
and post the results.

Too bad you did not post earlier, I could have got my hands on an E6410 until yesterday but now it is too late. E6410 seems to have an early UEFI firmware (E6400 has no UEFI boot). In my experience, the EFI boot with most early UEFI firmwares (and many current ones) was broken in some way. If you still experience the issue with buster, you can try to copy GRUB into the fallback location (removable device path) :

Code: Select all

mkdir -p /boot/efi/EFI/boot
cp /boot/efi/EFI/debian/grubx64.efi /boot/efi/EFI/boot/bootx64.efi
Or, if you do not care so much about EFI boot, install grub-pc (after creating a "BIOS boot" partition of size ~100 KB if the drive has a GPT partition table).
