Hi,
I only test the x86_64 version in macbook, which works nicely. Perhaps
you can add some debug code in kern/main.c
void
grub_main (void)
{
/* First of all, initialize the machine. */
grub_machine_init ();
+ grub_env_set ("debug", "all");
+ grub_printf ("init\n");
/* Hello. */
grub_setcolorstate (GRUB_TERM_COLOR_HIGHLIGHT);
grub_printf ("Welcome to GRUB!\n\n");
grub_setcolorstate (GRUB_TERM_COLOR_STANDARD);
Also, the tsc code may has some effect, remove grub_tsc_init in
kern/i366/efi/init.c:
void
grub_machine_init (void)
{
grub_efi_init ();
-grub_tsc_init ();
}

Re: EFI Boot on MacPro
iMac8,1 - grub.efi x86_64 hangs. built and run on the imac81 --with-platfrom=efi --target=x86_64 version 1913 and 1940 (current). Host ubuntu 810 amd64 kernel Linux im64 2.6.27-9-server #1 SMP Thu Nov 20 22:56:07 UTC 2008 x86_64 GNU/Linux grub.efi appears to be accepted by the firmware (started), but hangs immediately without any message. Tried with macosx bless, and with rEFIt, on HD and external usb. This differs from the 64/32 mismatch behaviour with the refit message 'unsupported while loading grub.efi') or the apple boot default to MacOSX. The x86_64 reult is different - bug in the start up? I will try to get some debug info. ___ Grub-devel mailing list Grub-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/grub-devel
