Hi, sorry for the beginner questions in advance.
How does grub2 locate and read "grub.cfg"? My (very superficial) understanding is this: - grub2 relies on its own filesystem drivers; for example, it does not attempt to consume EFI_SIMPLE_FILE_SYSTEM_PROTOCOL directly on a UEFI system -- it presumably consumes the BlockIo and/or DiskIo protocols, as a dependency of its own filesystem drivers - in one of those detected filesystems, it locates "grub.cfg", and reads it. Is this more or less correct? What about the following dependency problem: - some filesystem driver is built as a grub2 module, - grub.cfg contains a matching "insmod" grub2 command, loading said module, - but "grub.cfg" is placed on a filesystem of that particular type. Is this a realistic problem? If so, how is it solved? Is there something obvious I'm missing? Another question: assuming an EFI_SIMPLE_FILE_SYSTEM_PROTOCOL-based fs driver existed in grub2, a particular filesystem might then appear *twice* to grub2, once via its own "native" driver, and another time via the UEFI SimpleFs-backed driver. Would this be a problem? Thanks for your patience! Laszlo _______________________________________________ Grub-devel mailing list Grub-devel@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/grub-devel
