* How to chainload grub on different platforms? @ 2016-02-24 17:14 Andrei Borzenkov 2016-02-26 14:16 ` Vladimir 'φ-coder/phcoder' Serbinenko 0 siblings, 1 reply; 2+ messages in thread From: Andrei Borzenkov @ 2016-02-24 17:14 UTC (permalink / raw) To: The development of GNU GRUB On x86 we can use multiboot (on in exceptional case chainload boot block). On EFI we can use chainloader to launch EFI binary. What can we do on PowerPC? SPARC? ARM? MIPS? I think we really need some generic platform-independent interface to load another grub binary. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 2+ messages in thread
