Looking at the distgit repo the list of filesystem modules is down to 'fat'. The /big/ differences (grub being able to read /boot in ext4 or xfs format) is gone. So I'm likewise wondering what features you are missing? Right now the grub-cc build lacks the feature to properly support type #2 entries (https://uapi-group.org/specifications/specs/boot_loader_specification/#type-2-efi-unified-kernel-images), otherwise grub-cc + sd-boot should both provide the features needed to boot confidential VMs with UKIs. take care, Gerd -- _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe send an email to [email protected] Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/[email protected] Do not reply to spam, report it: https://forge.fedoraproject.org/infra/tickets/issues/new
