FWIW, we have received lots of positive feedback from Debian users on sparc64 with Eric's patches applied to the Debian GRUB package: > https://lists.debian.org/debian-sparc/2018/02/msg00015.html > https://lists.debian.org/debian-sparc/2017/12/msg00027.html > https://lists.debian.org/debian-sparc/2017/12/msg00050.html > https://lists.debian.org/debian-sparc/2017/12/msg00053.html > https://lists.debian.org/debian-sparc/2017/12/msg00074.html Even machines reported as old as the Ultra10 are reported to work fine. I am mentioning this because I talked to Vladimir and Daniel at FOSDEM and there was concern whether this patch series would break GRUB on old SPARC machines. Adrian -- .''`.
