Title: Mounting efivars read only Author: William Hubbs Content-Type: text/plain Posted: 2017-07-15 Revision: 1 News-Item-Format: 1.0 Display-If-Installed: <=sys-apps/openrc-0.28 OpenRC 0.28 mounts efivars read only due to concerns about changes in this file system making systems unbootable. If you need to change something in this path, you will need to re-mount it read-write, make the change and re-mount it read-only. Also, you can override this behavior by adding a line for efivars to fstab if you want efivars mounted read-write.
