Note that vTPM presence is at stake here too. Without vTPM there are no delays.
** Description changed: # Overview - Recent changes in boot logic moved grub from "removable disk" path to "/efi/ubuntu" in order to fix grub package updates. This had the side-effect of adding a 5-second boot delay in images. This was discovered in GCE images booting Bionic or newer. + Recent changes in boot logic moved grub from "removable disk" path to "/efi/ubuntu" in order to fix grub package updates. This had the side-effect of adding a 5-second boot delay in images. This was discovered in GCE images booting Bionic or newer, when vTPM is present. # Expected result The system to correctly boot from the first boot entry with no delay. # Actual result The system cannot find "System BootOrder", initializes defaults, and creates a 5-second delay in boot. # Steps to reproduce 1. Launch any GCE bionic or newer image after 20210224 2. View the serial console for the image and look for: "System BootOrder not found. Initializing defaults." Afterward, there were are messages counting down, starting with "Booting in 5 seconds" # Logs GCE Image 20210211: https://pastebin.ubuntu.com/p/JdgfRbZrCY/ GCE Image 20210224: https://pastebin.ubuntu.com/p/M7d4SZ4BJ3/ -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1922581 Title: 5s boot delay added when System BootOrder not found To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/shim/+bug/1922581/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
