x-port debian-boot, debian-cd (not sure which is correct)

Hi,

I'm creating the /root/mok.der key (in Sid dkms changed to /root/dkms.der) and try to register it with mokutil during a custom installation. I tried the preseed/late_command and I also tried a script with simple-cdd. But in all cases I get on UEFI systems (real hardware included):

EFI variables are not supported on this system

and have to enroll it after the first boot. Only then the modules built and signed are loaded.

I tried loading the efivarfs module via preseed/early_command and I can confirm that /sys/firmware/efi/efivars/ is actually there (but epmty).

I'd really appreciate to enroll the key *during* installation, while the Debian installer is running. Is there any way I can do this?

Regards, Daniel

I got it to work. I'm using a script that I load via preseed/late_command. The script does this:

#!/bin/sh

set -x

modprobe efivarfs || true

mount -t efivarfs efivarfs /target/sys/firmware/efi/efivars || true

test -e /target/root/mok.der || exit 0
in-target echo "Enroll DKMS mok.der key" >&2
in-target sh -c "printf 'Pass\nPass\n' | /usr/bin/mokutil --import /root/mok.der"

umount /target/sys/firmware/efi/efivars || true

exit 0

I'd like to use 'mokutil --import <file> --root-pw', but that fails with something like "Failed to get root password hash", so I have to set the password directly. Any idea about the error message and how to fix it?

Special thanks to @kibi for the printf hint.

The problem is that pam now sets the default hashing method to 'yescrypt' and that's not supported by mokutil, so it cannot decrypt the password :(
