Package: grub-pc Version: 2.02~beta2-26 Severity: wishlist Tags: patch Dear Maintainer,
Grub 2.02 does not provide the mechanism to automatically load a config file for uEFI network boot clients like that of PXELinux. It always let network boot client load grub.cfg. We need the ability for client to auto load that, like: (tftp,192.168.1.254)/boot/grub/grub.cfg-01-00-0c-29-68-f3-23 (tftp,192.168.1.254)/boot/grub/grub.cfg-C0A80101 (tftp,192.168.1.254)/boot/grub/grub.cfg-C0A8010 (tftp,192.168.1.254)/boot/grub/grub.cfg-C0A801 (tftp,192.168.1.254)/boot/grub/grub.cfg-C0A80 (tftp,192.168.1.254)/boot/grub/grub.cfg-C0A8 (tftp,192.168.1.254)/boot/grub/grub.cfg-C0A (tftp,192.168.1.254)/boot/grub/grub.cfg-C0 (tftp,192.168.1.254)/boot/grub/grub.cfg-C (tftp,192.168.1.254)/boot/grub/grub.cfg CentOS/Fedora distribution has a patch for this, as described here: https://git.centos.org/blob/!!!!rpms!grub2.git/0dc71c7bacb66388590a4a8e457d30813ce45205/SOURCES!0100-Search-for-specific-config-file-for-netboot.patch;jsessionid=11wvmi6s9c8nr192bj7zhe61yg https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=873406 Is that possible we can have the same patch applied in Debian?
