Subject: [PATCH 0/1] docs: Small Fixes for Network, Secure Boot, PXE
Date: Sun, 18 Aug 2024 11:20:44 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20240818162045.4318-1-adhamilt@gmail.com> (raw)

Currently the GRUB Manual has a few small issues captured in bug 
reports (54480, 62004, and 65152). These are related to issues in
documentation for environment variables "pxe_default_server",
"pxe_default_gateway"; incorrect statement that "chainloader" does
not support secure boot; and an issue in network boot documentation
for the searched grub.cfg name.

These issues have been updated in the grub manual (grub.texi).

From user perspective, this patch improve / correct / clarify
documentation around PXE, Secure Boot, and Network booting.

Andrew Hamilton (1):
  Correct documentation for pxe_default_server, pxe_default_gatway, and
    pxe_blksize. Only pxe_default_server is actually used (alias for
    net_default_server) so capture this, and remove the other two.
    Correct documentation for secure boot with UEFI to remove statement
    that chainloader does not work with secure boot, as this was added
    by a previous GRUB update. Correct the documentation for the
    grub.cfg searching via network that will be done based on a given
    MAC address (was missing the Ethernet Type - 01).
