Hi,
Did you guys tried to run installation of Debian 12.6.0 from netinst on VirtualBox from current Debian SID in EFI mode?
Hi Lukasz
Firstly: Virtualbox is in Sid (and nowhere else now) because of upstream
and Debian differences of opinion with regard to security. It will never
be in stable because of this.
Secondly: Breakage in Sid is to be expected to some extent. If it's
an issue of Sid as the underlying operating system - on the broken
system, you get to keep both pieces :)
So you have two elements both of which are less supportable than
corresponding Debian stable.
I'm fairly sure I saw a bug report about EFI breakage in Sid at
some point recently. It's no particular help but the netinst is
probably not at fault in that I can install it under VMWare
on a Mac / kvm and qemu on a Linux system. 12.7 should be produced
on August 31st or so.
All the very best, as ever,
Andy

I was able to install Debian 12.6.0 only in non EFI mode on VB.
Do you confirm my finding?
Best,
