I will create a patched version of partman-auto for testing purposes for
GRUB.
If everything works, we can start working on cleaning everything.
In the end, we need to do the following:
- Your changes to grub-installer, minus the bootstrap script
- Update hfsprogs and enable a udeb package, similar to e2fsprogs
- Update powerpc-utils to the latest upstream version, include
my patches - I'm already working on that
- Update the partition scheme in partman-auto for PowerPC NewWorld
with the following suggested scheme:
128 128 128 hfs
$bootable{ }
method{ format }
format{ }
use_filesystem{ }
filesystem{ hfs }
mountpoint{ /boot/grub } .
I have no idea how well that works though. In particular, I haven't verified
yet whether we would still need anything from partman-newworld, most likely
something that creates the 32 kb boot header.
