Hi, not that i would want to interfere with GRUB2 development decisions. Nevertheless, i have some comments from the view of the specs. Vladimir Serbinenko wrote: > El torito catalog contains bootable binaries. UEFI 2.4 9.3.6.2 "CD-ROM Media Device Path" "The CD-ROM Media Device Path is used to

Re: [PATCH] core/partmap: Add El Torito boot catalog parsing

I agree with Andrei. El torito catalog contains bootable binaries. The fact that this binary follows FAT format is purely tangential and we should not put additional files there or access it either Le 20 juin 2015 13:17, "Ross Lagerwall" a écrit : > On Mon, Jun 08, 2015 at 10:01:17PM +0300, Andre

[PATCH] core/partmap: Add El Torito boot catalog parsing

Add a module, part_eltorito, to allow parsing of the El Torito boot catalog into partitions. This follows the El Torito Bootable CD-ROM Format Specification Version 1.0 and the UEFI Specification 2.5. In cases where the specification is unclear, the code follows the UEFI reference implementation.
