vmlinuz image seems fine.

It seems it ignores your mountpoint, you pass directly the hard disk and
EFI partition number (which should be the first) so in:
efibootmgr -v -c -u -L Qubes -l /EFI/qubes/xen.efi -d /dev/sda -p 1
"placeholder /mapbs /noexitboot"

You only have to worry about /dev/sda

You only need to worry about /dev/sda, if you are afraid about breaking
it more try using a different label like "-L TryingQubesRescue".

Thank you very much Donoban. I tried:

what you see is that Qubes was still in the UEFI "line" now at position
0002. I will have to try a reboot - don't like it, because it is a pain
in the neck to re-install wireless on debian; I hope that I downloaded

I tried a reboot after an extra-emergeny backup (luks-by-hand training:)
and your efibootmgr command worked. qubes is back!  Thank you so much.

If it not helps, have you tried switching to different kernel in xen.cfg?

[qubes-users] HELP! after update dom0 "no bootable device found"

2021-01-29 Thread haaber
The main line is in the title. I did a dom0 upgrade that installed kernel-latest. After reboot I got the freaky message

"No bootable device found, press F1... F2 .. F5.." -- it does not really say where it comes from, but it sounds like a BIOS message.

 

I have no idea where to start, so I give all I have here and ask for help. Please read quickly over it, any hint is appreciated.

(1) I did boot my computer with a live linux.

(2) The boot partition does exist. The qubes folder reads like this

I am surprised by the sizes -- files seem small. Do the seem correct??  Are there files missing?? Could maybe someone check these md5sums, please?

If these files were corrupt, other error messages should appear, so it is, probably, somthing else. But still!

Next, my actual xen.cfg reads like this

these all look OK, a part from 5.10.8. being present as files, but not in the boot menu, which is strange.

 
 


(3) I could try the " efibootmgr " commands mentioned in UEFI troubleshooting, but I do not understand them, and I am afraid to f*ck it up even worse. If my harddrive-boot partition is mounted on /BOOT instead of /boot  , how would the command read, please??


 

 

 

Thank you very much,  Bernhard
