BIG BREAKTHROUGH! Found needle in hay stack in wrong mb2 hdr, finally boots Sol11.1++ via Grub2 UEFI32 on Lenovo MIIX 300-10IBY https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IhQaTvCyyog with quad-core Atom Z3735F http://ark.intel.com/products/80274/Intel-Atom-Processor-Z3735F-2M-Cache-up-to-1_83-GHz http://www.intel.com/content/dam/www/public/us/en/documents/datasheets/atom-z36xxx-z37xxx-datasheet-vol-1.pdf WITH KBD/USB/HDD/DVD!! Will publish detailed article and diffs in some days or say 1 week ;) It is very related to Illumos, because it finally proves that only xhci (provided acpi gets modernized with DilOS's diffs) prevented all usb devices including kbd from getting detected. No i2c drivers need to be prorted (see http://openbsd-archive.7691.n7.nabble.com/USB-and-Intel-Bay-Trail-td300473.html ) OpenSXCE will use Grub2 because it is in countless ways superiour to the FreeBSD loader. E.g. interoperability, menu configuration management, setpci command, and - really cute - you can loopback mount iso files which reside somehow somewhere (such as on the same bootstick or disk) and boot off them. The list is endless. Err, the FreeBSD loader port also fails to boot Solaris11.1++ via UEFI32, because it still has the same multiboot2 header error that I now finally detected and fixed in Grub2. As said - more later. Enough stuff for a full featured article with boot viideos, screenshots, fiffs and say some Grub2-enabled OI and/or OpenSXCE test iso. Stay tuned.
