bootlader/grub2: disable x86-64-efi choice on !BR2_ARCH_IS_64

2015-02-03T11:05:53+00:00

When x86-64-efi platform is selected, grub2 automatically adds -m64 to the CFLAGS. This makes the configure script failed when the toolchain does not have multilib support (like the Buildroot ones).

grub2: fix a few minor issues in help text

2014-07-15T18:09:11+00:00

The help text of grub2 explains the detailed steps to create a disk image with grub2 installed on it. However, the steps for the BIOS-based systems have a few minor issues fixed by this patch: - When calling partx to get the partitions detected, we should do it on the /dev/loop0 block device, and not on the underlying disk.img image file. - The grub-bios-setup utility must be called as root to work properly on /dev/loop0. - The steps to cleanup the partx and loop device were missing.

2014-07-02T08:59:01+00:00

grub2: remove package

2011-07-10T13:31:16+00:00

Grub 2 has been marked BROKEN in June 2010, and nobody cared to fix it since then. At that time, it was marked broken because the build process needed a Ruby interpreter available on the host, and it's really a pain that building a bootloader needs such a thing. I've tried to upgrade the package to Grub2 1.99-rcX, and now it does not need a Ruby interpreter anymore, but instead requires a tool called "autogen", which itself needs the Guile Scheme interpreter. Since we haven't heard any complaints about Grub2 being marked broken, and since it's such a pain to package, let's get rid of it. Of course, anybody interested in Grub2 is invited to contribute a working package. Signed-off-by: Thomas Petazzoni Signed-off-by: Peter Korsgaard

grub2: only available on x86 and PowerPC and mark as BROKEN

2010-06-12T11:38:44+00:00

The build process of grub2 breaks the compilation. It breaks with: ./configure: line 4766: syntax error near unexpected token `external' ./configure: line 4766: `AM_GNU_GETTEXT(external)' In addition to this, it later requires Ruby. Do we really want to make Buildroot depend on Ruby being installed on the host ? Do we really want to build our own Ruby ? Do we even care about Grub2 ? Signed-off-by: Thomas Petazzoni
