Warner Losh <[email protected]> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |[email protected] --- Comment #7 from Warner Losh <[email protected]> --- So EFI standard 2.9 says a few paragraphs later "The EFI firmware must support the FAT32, FAT16, and FAT12 variants of the EFI file system." There's a minimal size for FAT32 as well, and there's no *REQUIREMENT* that the ESP be a minimum size to support it. And the word 'encompasses' to me reads as 'typically includes' not 'prescriptively limits'. Partitions smaller than the minimum size for FAT32 can't be FAT32. So is this a bug on a specific system? Are there systems that won't boot if we don't do this? Are we limiting storage on a large partition by only formatting it with FAT16? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
