Subject: grub.cfg parser still doesn't abort on error
Date: Sat, 2 Feb 2008 21:44:00 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20080202204400.GA346@thorin> (raw)
Try the following grub.cfg:
cat (memdisk)/non-existant-file
echo this point should never be reached
read
You'll see that the echo is reached, even if cat returned an error.
This becomes much worse when found in situations like:
font (xxx)/some-file.pff
terminal gfxterm
and the font wasn't loaded.
