Offhand, I don't know of an EFI that will write to the ESP automatically; HOWEVER, there are cases when it can happen because of user actions and/or EFI applications' operation.

[Bug 1466150] Re: grub-install breaks when ESP is on raid
While installing ESP on top of mdadm (metadata version <= 1.0) RAID-1 is practically possible, supporting this is not: The UEFI specification (version 2.8, sections 13.3.1.1, 13.3.3) defines the ESP as a FAT32 file system which is located (directly) on a GPT partition. While this does not seem to be part of the specification, some UEFI implementations expect to be able to write to an ESP. Having UEFI write to what it must assume is just a FAT32 file system, but is really a mdadm RAID device in a RAID-1 array hosting a FAT32 file system, is problematic. While technically possible, allowing direct writes to a single RAID member violates RAID-1 and mdadm's expectations, and will put the RAID array into an inconsistent state, requiring a re- sync, which can only happen after mdadm detects the fact that this array is inconsistent. This conclusion has also been drawn in bug 1817066, which therefore suggests an alternative approach for improved data security for ESP: to support installing to multiple separate ESPs (located directly on GPT partitions). This said, the current bug report seems to be about several things: * grub-install cannot gracefully handle the (unsupported / non supportable) situation where the active ESP (FAT32 file system) is not located directly on a GPT partition (on a GPT partitioned disk), invokes efibootmgr with an empty -d (target device) argument; this can make grub-install fail, can make the grub package installation fail (pending dpkg configuration) and leave apt in a bad state, breaking installations * Some Ubuntu installers may allow to create partition schemes where ESP file systems are not located directly on a partition on a GPT partitioned disk, but such layouts should not be supported by these installers * Release upgrades may fail to handle (unsupported / unsupportable) partition schemes which contain a ESP which is not located directly on a partition on a GPT partitioned disk (an error) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1466150 Title: grub-install breaks when ESP is on raid To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub-installer/+bug/1466150/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1466150] Re: grub-install breaks when ESP is on raid
Yes Jack it does. That's why you can use a "trick" with md raid 1 with metadata 0.90 or 1.0, because those both result in having two (or more) discs with ESP partitions which are readable and bootable by the EFI BIOS.

[Bug 1466150] Re: grub-install breaks when ESP is on raid
I'm beginning to thing the problem is simply that the EFI System Partition really does need to be a real partition, and not a logical volume or part of a raid. It is not an issue with raid and fat32, it is just that the ESP (/boot/efi) needs to be reached from the EFI firmware, which doesn't know about anything except real GPT partitions. I'd really love to find otherwise, but that seems to be the conclusion of all my searching.

You can use 0.90 or 1.0 metadata. Both leave the partitions underneath looking like it has a simple (non-RAID) filesystem on each disc of a mirror when the EFI or BIOS looks at the drives.

> I have EFI partitions on both disks but it is not possible to RAID1 these > as they are FAT32. Actually it is possible to RAID1 FAT32. The problem is that the default RAID format places a header at the front of the partition, which stuffs up the boot loader. But if you use the 0.9.0 format with mdadm, header is placed at the end of the partition instead. This allows the boot loader to function as normal while the partition is RAID1. Just don't expect Windows to respect the RAID1. However even using this trick my system won't grub-install to a RAID1 partition. Reports problems with EFI.

[Bug 1466150] Re: grub-install breaks when ESP is on raid
I agree that the severity is incorrect. Whenever grub-install is run - ie when the version of grub is upgraded - I end up with an unbootable system. Yes, my trusty rescue disk sorts it out but that's not a solution. Referring to the comment above, I have two EFI entries, one for each disk. They both get trashed by grub-install so I recreate them by hand - either before reboot or after using the rescue disk. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1466150 Title: grub-install breaks when ESP is on raid To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub2/+bug/1466150/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1466150] Re: grub-install breaks when ESP is on raid
Just an FYI, this is still present in 16.04.4 which I just `apt-get upgrade`d to. I have /boot/EFI on a md RAID1 with 1.0 metadata. I'm not sure whether the severity is correct; as far as I could tell when hacking about with the efibootmgr command, the process had removed the 'ubuntu' boot entry before failing to add the new entry, so I suspect my system was unbootable. I have now used efibootmgr to add a new boot entry, but I'm working remotely and I'm not going to attempt to reboot until I'm sitting in front of the machine with a rescue disc/stick to hand! In particular, I am not clear what level the efibootmgr command is operating at: when I did the add on /dev/sda, subsequently listing it suggested it was also present on /dev/sdb... and I'm not sure whether in fact I ought to have two separate boot entries, one for each disc, so that if sda is a bit screwed but still present, booting can proceed with sdb. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1466150 Title: grub-install breaks when ESP is on raid To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub2/+bug/1466150/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Thanks for reporting this, AnrDaemon!
