From 7aa022c797171e4405b66ee41e5644835ca9c9dd Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Raymond Mao Date: Mon, 19 Jun 2023 14:23:01 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] Load option with short device path for boot vars The boot variables automatically generated for removable medias should be with short form of device path without device nodes. This is a requirement for the case that a removable media is plugged into a different port but is still able to work with the existing boot variables.
