Package: grub-common
Version: 2.02~beta2-36
Severity: normal
Hi,
I'm setting up GRUB on my ODROID XU4 (chainloading via U-Boot).
It actually works surprisingly well, but grub-mkconfig has one
serious omission; it doesn't load the device tree, which causes
the kernel not to boot.
I suppose the right way to deal with this is to patch /etc/grub.d/10_linux
to not only look for initrds but also device trees; the logic is
extremely similar. I believe flash-kernel copies these into place
(from /usr/lib/linux-image-/), but it also adds its own
boot.scr which overrides GRUB chainloading from U-Boot, so maybe
some adjustments need to be made there.
For the record, here's a typical boot sequence for my XU4 if I boot
it manually:
set root=(hd0,msdos1)
linux /vmlinuz-4.5.0-2-armmp-lpae root=/dev/mmcblk1p2 ro init=/bin/systemd
initrd /initrd.img-4.5.0-2-armmp-lpae
devicetree /dtb-4.5.0-2-armmp-lpae
boot
where /dtb-4.5.0-2-armmp-lpae is a symlink (created by flash-kernel)
into dtbs/4.5.0-2-armmp-lpae/exynos5422-odroidxu4.dtb. I would assume
just checking for /dtb- would be a very good start.
Thanks!
