Package: grub-efi-amd64 Version: 2.06-13 Severity: critical Justification: breaks the whole system
Dear Maintainer, My old laptop (Lenovo 11e) runs Sid and all was right before I updated it the other day (I don't do that very often). After that upgrade, GRUB wasn't able to load any kernel with the pretty much generic error "Error: can't load image". The version of GRUB was 2.12~rc1-12. If I try to boot again, GRUB tells me that I need to load the image first (I guess it somehow ignores the linux command and sends that when trying to load the initrd). I tried to reinstall grub, grub-install /dev/sda, update-grub, reinstall the kernel, update-initramfs from the rescue mode but nothing worked. The "file" command was able to read the vmlinuz file and none seemed truncated. The system has one partition with both / and /boot and isn't running out of space. I did not see any error message during those operation besides GRUB saying it wasn't able to update EFI parameters. I don't know if there is a way to get more logs or error message during the boot explaining why it wasn't able to load the image. I tried to get the last version of GRUB from Bookworm, that is 2.06-13, and now I'm able to boot. The kernel version did not change, the only change I did is to downgrade GRUB (and dependencies apt was asking for). I'm not sure which GRUB package I should use for reporting so I took the one that seems the most specific to my system. Apologies if it is not correct. Let me know if you need more info.
