Update issue writing to EFI

jadsel · 20 February 2025 16:35

I have run into a bit of an issue running a routine update. It proceeded as expected, and then:

dracut[I]: *** Creating image file '/boot/efi/EFI/Linux/linux-6.13.3-zen1-1-zen-818b5ae6ca2c4a3ca31c83fe44b8e6c9-rolling.efi' ***

System updated! 🐧

That’s a new one. The only info that I have found searching pertains to new installs, which this is not. The boot patition is pretty small (with no space to enlarge it), but I haven’t knowingly changed anything for quite a while.

What’s on there:

I’m not seeing any unexpected junk in there, and I am currently stumped at how to proceed. Any suggestions? Thanks!

Not too surprisingly, I haven’t wanted to reboot since that error came up. But, here’s the inxi output for good measure.

hello jadsel and welcome ,

thats because your efi partition is full.

you are on a dualboot with windows.

before ive installed garuda i did a extra 600mb efi partition and marked as efi and boot.

May you can try to add a 600mb partiton by resize your nvme0n1p5 with 600mb in front.Always check the new uuids matching with the /etc/fstab and create or chance it.

nstall GRUB on EFI partition

To add a 600MB EFI partition formatted as FAT32 and install GRUB on it, follow these steps:

Create the EFI Partition:

Use a partitioning tool like fdisk or parted to create a new partition of 600MB with the type “EFI System Partition (1)”.
Format the new partition as FAT32 using the mkfs.vfat command.

Mount the EFI Partition:

Mount the new EFI partition to /boot/efi using the mount command.

Update /etc/fstab :

Update the /etc/fstab file to include an entry for the new EFI partition. This entry should use the correct UUID of the new partition. You can find the UUID by running lsblk -no UUID /dev/sdXY where /dev/sdXY is your EFI partition device name.

Install GRUB:

Install GRUB to the EFI partition using the command:

sudo grub-install --target=x86_64-efi --efi-directory=/boot/efi --bootloader-id=GRUB

Update the GRUB configuration with:

sudo update-grub

PLEASE Check yourself again !!!

how i did to resolve it .here:

after all done try to update again .upd in terminal.

jadsel · 20 February 2025 18:20

Thank you very much. I am an idiot.

Probably should have set up a separate boot partition when I ran the install not long after getting this laptop. But, I did not, and didn’t really think more about it until now. I suppose I was hoping there was something else glaringly obvious that I was overlooking while tired and frustrated, but no. Creating a separate partition for GRUB did indeed fix the problem. Now resolved, and booted back in without issue.
