Subject: [PATCH v4 0/3] docs: Small Fixes for Network, Secure Boot, PXE
Date: Wed, 30 Oct 2024 19:24:51 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20241031002454.3584-1-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 improves / corrects / clarifies
documentation around PXE, Secure Boot, and Network booting.
Changes in v4:
- Correct patch titles for individual patches.
Changes in v3:
- Split patches by bug report fixed.
- Corrected "Closes" to "Fixes" in commits.
Changes in v2:
- Regenerate patch against current master branch.
Andrew Hamilton (3):
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).
