I have an efi partition already from a previous, failed install. Partman
sees it and shows the type as "EFI boot partition". It seems to be
activated in partman, but on exit partman-efi complains that I have no
efi boot partition.
I've tried deleting the partition and re-making it, which works, but
only if I slightly change the size. Apparently otherwise partman noticed
I've not really changed anything, and does not format it. Unlike when
it's dealing with other pre-existing partitions, partman does not add a
"Format the partition: yes/no" to the partition edit menu, so I cannot
force it to format it. Anyway, I'd rather not have to, as I hope to have
multiple debian installs on this machine eventually.
So to sum up, partman should let me control whether to format an
existing efi partition or not, and partman-efi should not complain if
the efi partition already exists and was previously formatted, or should
perhaps complain less strenuously, since I suppose using an efi
partition that has other cruft on it might be unsafe.
