Hi all,

 

We would be very interested in replacing elilo (the current Itanium boot loader) with grub.

 

Could you help us with answering a few questions about this boot loader?

1.       Can you tell us if this type of architecture is supported or will be supported?

2.       Is there a way in which we could contribute on making this happen?

3.       How does chainloading behave on network boot? Is this possible?

 

Thanks,

Diana chinces

First of all, the Multiboot specification doesn't (yet) support Itanium and that is definetely something that needs work before we can say that GRUB has full support for this architecture. What do you mean by network chainloading, how do you expect to boot loader to behave exactly?

When Robert Millan took over he imported the patches and port is availabale from http://bzr.savannah.gnu.org/r/grub/branches/ia64/ (bzr checkout). Judging by code port looks fairly usable except module loading. Unfortunately we have no testers so I can't say what happens if you try to boot it.

I recommend using the native protocol (e.g. linux module for linux).
