Re: Solaris boot

hile being ELF), I reported that issue, no idea when they catch up. And when this is worked around (I patched out the test in grub2), it still doesn't run, maybe because some tables are missing in grub2's multiboot implementation (e820? no idea, didn't investigate further)

Re: Next release?

no idea if that applies to grub2 or not. as for the start/_start tests, I merely let configure default to _start if no other symbol was found, which might break grub-emu, but builds the target system grub just fine here. with i386-elf, the target compiler has no crt*.o anyway.

grub_term.checkkey behaviour in GRUB2

Hi, I'm working on a multiplexer terminal device (which sends requests to several terminals in the backend, eg. console and serial in parallel) and ran into different behaviour in checkkey on console and serial. console's checkkey consumes the keypress it returns (if there is one), serial's

ata on i386-linuxbios

Hi, The ata driver fails on i386-linuxbios on real hardware because grub_millisleep is stubbed, and real hardware relies on some timing (other than qemu ;-) ). After I added the mdelay function from libpayload and let grub_millisleep run that (and added initialisation, of course), things are r

Booting Linux from coreboot+grub2

Hi, I just want to report that booting linux from grub2/i386-linuxbios doesn't work in my tests. To solve this, I'd propose to start from the i386-efi loader, which (other than the i386-pc loader which is currently used by the linuxbios platform) doesn't use the real mode code of linux (which

Hi, second installement of my mini-series: The AT keyboard driver assumes that the keyboard is set to scancode set #1. It seems like many keyboards use set #2 (or even #3) by default now, and some 8042-emulating chipsets don't enable translation (to #1) by default. The BIOS then enables it to
