Package: debian-installer
Severity: important
X-Debbugs-Cc: [email protected]
I recently installed my first UEFI amd64 host. I used debian-installer to
configure a brtfs root, which used the default @rootfs volume name.
Contrary to what some people claim, UEFI is anything BUT "modern and robust" so
I have had to use d-i's rescue mode off a USB stick or a regular basis. The USB
stick currently contains:
Debian GNU/Linux 12 (bookworm) amd64 - netboot mini.iso 20230607+deb12u9
The rescue operation currently involves typing a complicated series of commands
on the console, because d-i seemingly cannot work with btrfs volume names.
IMHO, at the very least, the menu to select the partition to mount should show
the output of 'lsblk -f'.
Better yet, the rescue mode should be able to find the root and EFI partitions
by itself and offer to mount them.
A solution in-between could involve suggesting a disk among those found to have
both an EFI partition AND a Linux partition whose label is '/' and mount these
e.g. /dev/sda has both an EFI partition and a Linux partition labelled '/',
would you like to mount them?
