Hello Friends!

I messed up my Debian so I'm trying re-install with a live USB, however it
always fails. I get this message:

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Boost.Python error in job "bootloader".

Command 'grub-install --target=x86_64-efi --efi-directory=/boot/efi
--bootloader-id=Debian --force' returned non-zero exit status 1.

Installing for x86_64-efi platform. grub-install: warning: Cannot set EFI
variable Boot0000. grub-install: warning: efivarfs_set_variable: writing to
fd 7 failed: No space left on device. grub-install: warning:
_efi_set_variable_mode: ops->set_variable() failed: No space left on
device. grub-install: error: failed to register the EFI boot entry: No
space left on device.


Traceback:

line 285, in install_grub

    "--force"])


  File "<string>", line 8, in <module>
---------------------------------------------------------

I thought the problem was my live USB, but when I used another Debian
live USB (that was proven to be a successful installer),

I get the same result.

I did not resize the debian partitions, I merely reformatted it.

Thank you very much for your time!
