Design a UEFI Linux disk.
Choose the standard partition from which firmware loads boot files.
Which item is appropriate?
The EFI System Partition (ESP) stores EFI executables and boot data read by UEFI firmware and is commonly mounted at /boot/efi.
Detailed explanation
rpm -V tool-1.0-1.x86_64.rpmIncorrect. Swap stores memory pages rather than UEFI executables.
rpm -q tool-1.0-1.x86_64.rpmIncorrect. /home stores user data.
rpm -ql tool-1.0-1.x86_64.rpmIncorrect. An LVM PV provides storage to LVM and is not the standard firmware-readable ESP.
rpm -K tool-1.0-1.x86_64.rpmCorrect. The ESP is the UEFI boot partition.
Try it yourself
An example you can run in a temporary verification environment.
rpm -K tool-1.0-1.x86_64.rpmExpected result
署名が検証できればdigests signatures OK相当。実在する安全な検体で実行するKey points
- ESP is for UEFI boot
- It stores EFI executables
- Often mounted at /boot/efi
Notes
- Environment: RPM 4.x / 検体RPMの読み取りのみ
- Use a read-only query or trusted disposable RPM when testing.
- RPM options and signature behavior should be confirmed on the target distribution.
Foundation review
Place the operation
Signature validation depends on the corresponding trusted key being available.
Check the side effect
Use a trusted test RPM and note the result when its key is unavailable.
