[Bug 1803031] Re: error: cannot find EFI directory.
Verification-done on cosmic with partman-efi/71ubuntu4.1: Starting a d-i install with proposed enabled; with partman-efi installed in the d-i environment; I could verify that using manual partitioning and omitting to create an ESP in UEFI mode leads to showing the error message and blocking the user from continuing with the install. If the user creates their own ESP; then the install continues with no messages. This behaves the same in CSM mode or without CSM. When installing in Guided Partitioning, in UEFI or BIOS mode; the user sees no warning and the install completes successfully. In BIOS mode, the install just completes successfully with manual partitioning since an ESP is not required. ** Tags removed: verification-needed verification-needed-cosmic ** Tags added: verification-done-cosmic -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1803031 Title: error: cannot find EFI directory.

[Bug 1803031] Re: error: cannot find EFI directory.
Verification done with ubiquity 18.04.14.12 / partman-efi 71ubuntu2.2: I've tried the various permutations of installing in BIOS mode, in UEFI mode, or with UEFI with CSM enabled. All work as appropriate: when installing in UEFI with or without CSM and no ESP is created, the user is prompted; in BIOS mode the user is never prompted. All of the above work without prompting in automated partitioning, as expected. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1803031 Title: error: cannot find EFI directory.

[Bug 1803031] Re: error: cannot find EFI directory.
Thanks Mathieu, that's indeed an improvement ("go create an EFI" doesn't
seem like something obvious/that non technical users would figure out
but it's already better than saying nothing and failing install later
on)

[Bug 1803031] Re: error: cannot find EFI directory.
yes, you install using a recent daily. That should be enough, but otherwise you can upgrade to the new ubiquity from -proposed. The user needs to figure it out. We do have guided partitioning for that reason; and the warning clearly says it's "missing an EFI System Partition", which is one of the options given for the type of partition when using manual partitioning. Considering the differences between ubiquity and d-i, this was currently the best that could be done at short notice. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1803031 Title: error: cannot find EFI directory.

[Bug 1803031] Re: error: cannot find EFI directory.
Thanks for working on that one! Some questions - what's the best way to test on an iso? Is booting a bionic daily and installing the new ubiquity deb enough? - you wrote 'The installer should immediately warn the user that there is no EFI System partition and offer to go back to the partitioning screen. Once the EFI System partition is present' It's not clear from the description how the EFI partition needs to be created. Is the user bounced back to the manually partitioning screen and then needs to figure out how to do that? or is it done for them? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1803031 Title: error: cannot find EFI directory.
