I assume it did not mount the EFI System Partition and thus the boot process stopped right after the UEFI firmware had loaded. > How was the disk image prepared? Uhm manually with the ususal linux tools,.. gdisk for partitioning, mkfs.vfat for the ESP, and so on. > =C2=A0 Are you sure there is a FAT32 > file system formatted on one of those block devices. Yes. > It must be > the UEFI FAT32, or it will not be recognized by the UEFI FAT driver. Not sure what "UEFI FAT32" is, but at least I'm sure it was a FAT32 fs as created by mkfs.vfat -F 32 . The only problem seemed to have been that it was too small. > I am wondering of the partition is too small if the file system > format is no longer FAT32??? That I don't understand. The GPT partition had 32 MiB, and a FAT32 fs was created in that. There was no "overlapping" or so. Cheers, Chris.
