hi,
  My hard disk is MBR partition type, there is FAT partition in my logical
partition, bootloader grub.efi is in this partition. When grub efi 
bootloader starts up, it cannot probe my hard disk. It is because that
parent device_path of current logical partition is extended partition, but
not my hard disk's device path.
   Here I wrote one patch to solve this problem, I discarded the device
whose type is not GRUB_EFI_MEDIA_DEVICE_PATH_TYPE, added devices whose type
is GRUB_EFI_MESSAGING_DEVICE_PATH_TYPE  as hard-disk or cdrom disk.
   Any suggestion is welcome:) I sent email to grub mailing list, but there
is no response, I do not know why.

thanks
bibo,mao
