2017-08-31 Thread Rod Smith
Steve, there have been two problems that are feeding into this bug report, both on MAAS installations to EFI-based nodes, which must normally PXE-boot so that the MAAS server can maintain control of its nodes: * After GRUB package updates, the GRUB package would add GRUB to the start of the boot

Andres, it's perfectly possible to redeploy a system after it's been set to boot from the local disk by either adjusting the boot order on the node or by deleting GRUB from the local disk.

2017-08-30 Thread Rod Smith
Andres, fundamentally the problem is that EFI provides no means to control the boot order via IPMI; it's set via non-IPMI firmware mechanisms or via the efibootmgr tool in Ubuntu. That is, point #4 in your first list is incorrect, and everything falls apart after that. When a GRUB package uses efib
