Describe the bug

The EFI binaries (KeyTool.efi etc) don't boot correctly when used.

Steps To Reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Format a USB drive to FAT32 with ESP flag
  2. Copy KeyTool.efi from Nix store to /EFI/BOOT/BOOTx64.efi
  3. (Optional) Sign the efi file if needed for secure boot
  4. Boot a computer using the USB drive

Expected behavior

KeyTool should launch

Screenshots

KeyTool doesn't launch. It's a black screen with no errors.

Additional context

I tried download the same file from other distribution, it works.
