Package: mdadm Version: 4.4-12 Severity: normal Tags: patch
Hello maintainers of mdadm,While reproducing the issue in #1110729, I found out that the generation of live images result in different images, depending on whether they are built on a host booted via BIOS or UEFI.
Attached you'll find a patch that always includes the efivarfs modules in the initrd.img
With kind regards, Roland Clobus
