Hello,

I would like to set/configure Open Source gnu-2.00 package (or later) in order to be able to support the following configuration on my target HDD:

And would be able to jump from Coreboot to start executing stage1 (MBR)?

Actually, I don't mind having *.elf which will somehow jump to /boot/grub (?) from Coreboot to see in the /boot all these kernels?

Any GRUB BKM web page for that?

Thank you,

Hello to GRUB community,

I continued to explore and read the documentations, and so far I was not able to boot from my GRUB made and install from original GRUB package.

I had all tools installed in /usr/local/sbin (all relevant tools), and then executed the following command:
grub-install --boot-directory=/media/rootfs/boot --directory=/usr/local/lib/grub/i386-coreboot target=x86_64

It installed for me everything on the target HDD (mounted on /media/rootfs), in the directory /media/rootfs/boot/grub/i386-coreboot (I found there file core.elf, size 105K).

But I also used the following command from the same /usb/local/sbin:
grub-mkimage --directory=/usr/local/lib/grub/i386-coreboot -o /media/rootfs/boot/grub/core.img -O i386-coreboot

And this command built for me core.img in /media/rootfs/boot/grub of size 27K.

It seems that these two files are identical, till the end of file, where core.img has directory in ascii: /boot/grub

I try to embed both files consecutively in coreboot as payload, in sincere hope to boot to MBR and get the grub> prompt.

But I did not succeed, and my IVB platform stopped at Post Code 0x00F8 (PEI_RECOVERY_PPI_NOT_FOUND) instead stopping to (0x00A3) DXE IDE Detect.

Any clue what I am doing wrong?

Thank you,
Zoran

--directory and --target are mutually exclusive and normally none is
needed - grub-install will autodetect current platform. Only if you
want to install GRUB for platform different from current (e.g. install
GRUB for EFI while running in legacy BIOS mode).

--target means use modules from standard system-wide location and is
normally used after grub is installed. --directory overrides module
location and is usually used before installation.

grub-install detects which drivers are needed to access
--boot-directory and adds them to core.img. When using grub-mkimage
directly it is up to you to specify correct drivers.
