Subject: GRUB fix for 1.1: Preferred approach for default grub version
Date: Mon, 03 Oct 2011 11:48:32 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4E8A0380.1030502@linux.intel.com> (raw)
When grub2 was merged int oe-core, it became the default (rather than
being explicitly requested by the 64b meta-intel BSPs). This breaks the
live install on 32b systems, like the n450 - installing grub v1.99 with
a grub v1 config.
We have a couple options on how to fix this.
1) Set PREFERRED_PROVIDER_grub="0.97" in all 32b x86 machine configs
2) Set DEFAULT_PREFERENCE="-1" in the grub_1.99.bb recipe which would
affect all of oe-core.
3) Some alternate approach which would be the equivalent of
DEFAULT_PREFERENCE, but only for meta-yocto BSPs or the poky
"distro".
Given the time frame, I'd prefer to agree on the approach before writing
and testing patches. Preferences?
Thanks,
