I tested grub2_2.02~beta3-4+sparc64.1 via the 2016-05-04 install media on t5220[1] hardware as well as in an ldom[2] and had no issues with the installation or subsequent boot via grub
[1] https://distortion.io/p/19 <https://distortion.io/p/19> [2] https://distortion.io/p/20 <https://distortion.io/p/20> Based on the discussion in #sparc about T5240 grub2 memory errors/memory-region issues, let me know if you want me to try an 'invalid' memory config on the T5220, or do any more debugging. I've also got a T5440 which can also be used for debugging various memory configurations if needed -- I just need to find sufficient electricity for it first. > On Feb 8, 2017, at 6:23 AM, John Paul Adrian Glaubitz > <glaub...@physik.fu-berlin.de> wrote: > > Hi! > > On 01/23/2017 12:40 AM, John Paul Adrian Glaubitz wrote: >> I just uploaded grub2_2.02~beta3-3+sparc64 to Debian "unreleased" which >> contains an additional set of 15 patches by Eric Snowberg (CC'ed) which >> improve SPARC in grub2 and add support for modern SPARC hardware through >> the SPARC T7. > > I uploaded grub2_2.02~beta3-4+sparc64.1 to "unreleased" today which is > based on Eric's latest sparc-next-v2 branch [1].
