Follow-up Comment #3, bug #39818 (project grub): Removing --target definitely isn't an option; the intent of this bug was simply to avoid having a default prefix on programs. ___ Reply to this item at:

[bug #39861] Grub2 collapses unknown e820 memory types to reserved

2013-09-19 Thread Josh Triplett
Follow-up Comment #5, bug #39861 (project grub): While the specs for e820 do indeed say that you should treat unknown types as reserved (in the sense of not touching the memory they refer to), that doesn't mean you should rewrite the table to change those unknown values to reserved. While for

Follow-up Comment #4, bug #39750 (project grub): As discussed on IRC offsets used seem to contradict official boot protocol documentation. Where did you get those values? From the original GRUB code removed in bzr revno 3592, from the syslinux source, and from testing and verifying that this

[bug #32998] grub-mkrescue ISO images bootable as disk (like isohybrid) but not mountable within Linux

2012-06-16 Thread Josh Triplett
Follow-up Comment #4, bug #32998 (project grub): Not quite. Mounting grub.iso as a whole works the same as mounting the disk rather than the partition. Try putting the .iso you generated on a USB disk, inserting it, and seeing if automounting works. Because the disk has a partition table,

Follow-up Comment #6, bug #32998 (project grub): Sounds like the bug of automounting. You should take this to automount guys rather than complaining here. I would have done so, if not for isohybrid managing to create a similar disk image without causing the same problem. That possibility

Follow-up Comment #2, bug #32998 (project grub): I realize that mounting the whole disk rather than the partition would work. However, because the disk has a partition table on it, Linux detects the partition, and then the automatic mounting tools try to mount the partition. That works for
