Reporting to live-build, but it probably needs to be handled somewhere else.
Occasionally (but rather quite often) the bootwalk test on openQA fails when
booting with UEFI secure boot. Especially 4:1:2 and 4:3:2 fail with the message
from d-i: 'Your installation medium couldn't be mounted.'
A screenshot often shows an empty black rectangle in grub, indicating that some
messages should have been displayed, but openQA wasn't able to capture them.
Perhaps a frame-by-frame analysis will show the messages.

A case for 4:2:3:
The video from https://openqa.debian.net/tests/198206#step/bootwalk_4:2:3/6
shows a efi_printk message:
EFI stub: ERROR: Failed to load initrd: 0x8000000000000001
EFI stub: ERROR: efi_main() failed!
The number corresponds to EFI_LOAD_ERROR
https://sources.debian.org/src/linux/6.5.6-1/include/linux/efi.h/?hl=32#L32
Enhancing UEFI logging (with kernel option `efi=debug` might help, but the
current openQA test isn't written with optional kernel options in might.
With kind regards,
Roland Clobus
