Hey, while investigating possibilities on how it might be possible to
install/run something "wubi" like on macs (without having windows
installed) I ran into a couple of issues. I post here mainly in hope
that one of the folks that actually wrote the code for this or at
least have experience with i

didn't this work already? or was this only cause of efi? just while testing
the input issue on my mac i attached a usb keyboard too, and that worked.

Mmm, I was under the impression I should test at_keyboard. However now
this doesn't seem to make much sense. So usb_keyboard is not loaded
automatically or is it?

ug output, do I have to include a #define DEBUG_USB_KEYBOARD
or something in the src too in addition to debug=usbkeyb
?

Why that fails I have no idea though, but I will try to continue with
it tomorrow.

to insert some more debug statements, or maybe if efi/console.c needs
to be adapted to work with usb_keyboard, as I understand that at first
it only was included in the compile for i386 anyway ...

This whole debate made read up a little bit on TPM, for example I
checked http://www.osxbook.com/book/bonus/chapter10/tpm/
(osx book is a very nice resource for mac/os x system internals)
regarding tpms on apple hardware.
Now contrary to what some outdated resources/rumours say, at least all
newer
nice ... will try to test this asap.

hi,
why did you scrap ivt.bin loading ... seems much more complicated now.
I'm not sure if I remeber right, but I think ivt.bin worked best for me ...

Hey, just a wild guess, but I think boot.mod got dropped and the boot
command is now included in minicmd.mod
So maybe your build script needs to be adjusted for that, to copy that
one to the right place? Not familiar with grub2 booting on i386/bios
though anymore, so just a guess.

so work is to re-check out grub to a seperate directory,
and try if that works.

Or maybe this makes it more clear: With wubi (which uses grub4dos) for
example this only works, because the ubuntu installer and lateron the
installed system provide additional software that enables the system
to do so. (lupin/caspar) This only works if specifically supported by
some iso, it will n

also kernel will fail if it can't access/write to loopback (hfs+ comes
to mind, or kernel which does not support ntfs)

It is kinda documented on ubuntu-forums I think ... and maybe on the
list. (here) When ppl were either asked to test it or reported their
findings. I think the main use case is booting linux directly from
efi, without bios emulation mode/legacy mode. This primarily applies
to macs, though it might
It compiles for me, but even with outcommented line in grub-mkimage.c
it does not start.

not as far as I know. objconv is specifically needed for conversion,
and it was noted in the apple gcc patch that it needs objconv (to work
at all) so no surprise there. good that it works for you though.
