Hello,
I'm testing a Kali Linux mini.iso, in a BIOS virtual machine. Kali uses
the grub-installer package from Debian, no change and it's up-to-date.
The postinst still fails at this point. The error can be reproduced from
the console:
mkdir -p /target/sys/firmware/efi/efivars
mkdir: can't create directory '/target/sys/firmware/efi': Operation
not permitted
I suppose the mkdir call must also be allowed to fail when fstype is
efivarfs (following the same logic that is already used for mount).
Do you want me to submit a patch?
NB: the issue only affects a BIOS VM. If I boot a UEFI VM, everything
works fine.
Thanks
