Package: grub-efi-ia32-bin
Version: 2.02+dfsg1-20
Severity: normal

I've got a tablet based on Cherrytrail-Platform (Trekstor SurfTab twin 11.6) 
and installed grub on the internal flash drive (partitioned with GPT). When I 
select the boot entry in UEFI it hangs for 5 minutes before showing the menu of 
grub. An EFI-Loader from Windows, which is on the same partition, does not show 
this behavior.

I performed some tests to identify the problem:

- copied /boot/efi/debian/grubia32.efi to /EFI/Boot/bootia32.efi on a USB flash 
drive (partitioned in MBR-style) - result: no delay, booted immediately
- copied /boot/efi/debian/grubia32.efi to /boot/efi/Boot/bootia32.efi on 
internal flash - result: boot after 5 minute delay
- copied /boot/efi/debian/grubia32.efi to /boot/efi/Boot/Microsoft/bootmgfw.efi 
on internal flash - result: boot after 5 minute delay
- installed linux-image-686, booted into EFI-Shell and booted kernel directly 
via EFI stub - result: system freeze
- repartioned internal flash from GPT to MBR layout - result: boot after 5 
minute delay

After a web search I found, that a hang in a UEFI application may trigger a 
timer to reset this application after five minutes by UEFI. I'm wondering if 
this is the case here. What can I do to further debug this issue?


Thanks,
Tino
