I am seeing this too (late upgrade to the system) For me, this is caused by /usr/lib/grub/grub-multi-install: # /usr/lib/grub/grub-multi-install mount: /var/lib/grub/esp: special device /dev/sdb1 does not exist.

Philipp Classen #13 > (Another issue, which I will mention as there is a tiny chance that it is related, although I doubt it: After rebooting, I was not able to boot (not even reaching the question for the passphrase). To solve it, I had to disable Secure Boot, then I reached the state where I could enter my passphrase to unlock the encrypted partition.) Small modification to your commands above - after purging the grub packages I did a `sudo apt-get install grub-efi-amd64-signed` instead of `sudo apt-get install grub-efi`. I believe the signed packages include the CA certificate needed to allow secure boot in the BIOS settings. This could make a difference if this option is enabled.

I too am seeing this error. Same circumstances as #23. I have recently installed Win 10 on sda but sda1 is not the NTFS partition, that is sda2. Ubuntu is on sdb, / on sdb2, /boot/efi on sdb1. I can find no reference to sda1 in my Ubuntu /etc or /boot so I don't know where it's coming from.

[Bug 1871963] Re: dpkg fails to install grub-efi-amd64 signed and shim-signed
I am seeing this and I suspect it is because I installed Windows on an extra SSD that was a Linux partition. /dev/sda is that device ``` Setting up grub-efi-amd64-signed (1.155.1+2.04-1ubuntu35.1) ... NTFS signature is missing. Failed to mount '/dev/sda1': Invalid argument The device '/dev/sda1' doesn't seem to have a valid NTFS. Maybe the wrong device is used? Or the whole disk instead of a partition (e.g. /dev/sda, not /dev/sda1)? Or the other way around? dpkg: error processing package grub-efi-amd64-signed (--configure): installed grub-efi-amd64-signed package post-installation script subprocess returned error exit status 12 ``` I haven't tried purging the grub package because of the high risk.

[Bug 1871963] Re: dpkg fails to install grub-efi-amd64 signed and shim-signed
We're seeing this one too, on Ubuntu 20.04. I think something interesting to note is the disk layout which might be causing it to happen. During apt upgrade or forced grub package installation, I get: mount: /var/lib/grub/esp: special device /dev/sda1 does not exist. dpkg: error processing package grub-efi-amd64-signed (--configure): installed grub-efi-amd64-signed package post-installation script subprocess returned error exit status 32 It seems like the install script is looking for /dev/sda1 to install GRUB updates to. When checking /etc/fstab, I can see a line which states: # /boot/efi was on /dev/sda1 during curtin installation It's a VMware VM which was installed to a single emulated SCSI root VMDK, which will have been /dev/sda during installation. But /dev/sda1 no longer exists because new disks have been added to this system since then. It seems like when assigning letters (as per the /dev/sd* schema), the SAS disks get assigned letters first, followed by the SCSI boot drive, which ends up being /dev/sdq (meaning the partition GRUB originally installed to is now all the way down at /dev/sdq1). The disk that ends up being allocated to /dev/sda is one of many in a RAID array, and these are encrypted using LUKS across the entire disk (no partition). So there is no /dev/sda1 at all anymore as far as the GRUB installer is concerned. Is there any way I can force GRUB to find the correct /boot/efi location? (Running lsblk confirms it is definitely at /dev/sdq1 now). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1871963 Title: dpkg fails to install grub-efi-amd64 signed and shim-signed To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dpkg/+bug/1871963/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Just had the same issue as Deepak. Same error after upgrading from 18.04 to 20.04, but I checked and apparently also had the fix of the semicolon in /var/lib/dpkg/info/grub-efi-amd64-signed.postinst. So, there might be another issue that is causing the same problem. Running it with "set -x", I could see that the "/usr/lib/grub-multi- install --target=$target" call was failing (with target=x86_64-efi). Why it failed, I could not find out. I was able to fix the installation problem by running the commands from https://stackoverflow.com/a/53284186/783510: # sudo apt-get purge grub\* # sudo apt-get install grub-efi # sudo apt-get autoremove # sudo update-grub After that, the apt-get errors were gone, and the installation could be completed.

Re: [Bug 1871963] Re: dpkg fails to install grub-efi-amd64 signed and shim-signed
Rob, Your problem is due to another process having the /var/cache/debconf.dat file in a locked state: debconf: DbDriver "config": /var/cache/debconf/config.dat is locked by another process: Resource temporarily unavailable The original problem reported was due to a syntax error in the code which is now fixed. I have never seen this particular problem before so haven't a clue how to fix it. Normally if you have a file locked during an apt command it is due to another apt process locking it. This could be due to an automated check for update(e.g. apt update) command running when you are trying to do a manual command or from one of the package managers being left open when you are trying to do a manual command.
