Subject: grub2, PXE boot, and FreeBSD 9.1
Date: Mon, 22 Apr 2013 11:30:19 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <5175659B.3000602@gmail.com> (raw)

After some discussion on the grub-help list, the suggestion was made 
that I bring my latest issue up here.

I resolved a timeout error during early boot (loading normal.mod) by 
applying a patch to tftp.c 
[https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/download.php?file_id=26133].

That fixed the timeout issue, but led immediately to a new "error: not 
an IP".

I pulled grub2 trunk & built (on freebsd), and this build doesn't 
exhibit the "not an IP" problem - it goes ahead and boots to my grub menu.

So the question on the table is this: is there a specific patch or 
relatively small set of patches that I can use to resolve the "not an 
IP" problem on the (in theory) more stable 2.00 base, so that I'm not 
trying to use the not-so-stable trunk?

Thanks,
