Hello Simon,
I have built sandbox_defconfig with PREBOOT='host bind 0 ../sct.img'
On the image I have an ESP with file EFI/BOOT/BOOTX64.EFI.
I would expect the sandbox to boot from the ESP.
But when starting the sandbox is does not boot. Instead it shows a menu
with some Fedora related entry:
Fedora-Workstation-armhfp-31-1.9 Boot Options.
1: Fedora-Workstation-armhfp-31-1.9 (5.3.7-301.fc31.armv7hl)
This makes absolutely no sense on an x86_64 system. Could you, please,
fix sandbox_defconfig to boot according to distroboot.
What sort of 'fix' are you thinking of? You should be able to discover
all the options with 'bootflow scan' and then use 'bootflow select' or
'bootflow menu' to choose which one you want.
The Fedora thing is used for testing and development.
I want to autoboot the sandbox without manual intervention. This
requires a sane state.
If that Fedora thingy is only needed in CI, can't we put it into a
config segment that only used by the CI scripts and have the sandbox in
a generally usable state? Or can we let the Python tests add the
otherwise not needed bootflow?
Best regards
Heinrich
