It's a bug in grub-mkimage - it inappropriately assumes that text is a first segment. I'll fix it. Temporarily you can just comment out the following line: util/i386/efi/grub-mkimage.c: line 104: strcpy (kernel_image + sizeof (Elf_Ehdr) + GRUB_KERNEL_MACHINE_PREFIX, prefix); > > Attempt to compile macho2img.c gave error, but is this needed for x86_64? > > On Mon, May 11, 2009 at 2:46 AM, Vladimir 'phcoder' Serbinenko > <phco...@gmail.com> wrote: >> >> Hello.
