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?
