Howdy Yasuaki, I know some boxes with small NVRAM (less than 64kb?) will meet many issues if we always keep ~5kb free space. But if we really do not keep some free space as default, many box will become a brick. (In fact, I just fixed a bricked dell xps 8500 last week. 5kb is not enough for dell xps...) So maybe the better way is: we check the size of nvram and decide how many space we retain. isimatu.yasu...@jp.fujitsu.com writes:
