Hi,
Just to let hurd folks know, this bug affects their netboot images too.
So I'll submit a patch that fixes both hurd and kfreebsd:
$ wget http://d-i.debian.org/daily-images/hurd-i386/daily/netboot/grub2pxe
$ qemu-system-i386 -net nic -net user,bootfile=grub2pxe,tftp=.
qemu: fatal: Trying to e
I narrowed down the cause of the hangs to normal.mod, from
grub-2.02-beta2. With vanilla upstream source the same module seemed
buggy, but instead of a hang, I got this:
> qemu: fatal: Trying to execute code outside RAM or ROM at 0x9ef000e9
The good news is, dropping normal.mod from the grub-mkim
Okay, that turned out to be the grub-mkimage I was using, not the actual
GRUB2 modules.
We're now back to seeing the original problems from
https://bugs.debian.org/711799#14:

A minimal build of upstream grub-2.02-beta2 did *not* seem to show this
hang/reboot. From their Git I checked out that version and then:
$ ./configure --disable-efiemu --disable-grub-mkfont
--disable-grub-themes --disable-grub-mount --disable-liblzma && make
$ grub-mkimage -d grub-core --format=

thanks
grub2pxe is still not working for me. I don't see the "no server is
specified" error message any more (I think it just isn't getting that
far), but experience a hang or instant reboot instead.
To reproduce:
$ wget

Hi,
I maybe should have set a higher severity for this. It doesn't make the
whole grub2 package useless, but it has broken the GRUB2
Package: grub-pc-bin
Version: 2.00-14

Severity: important

Hi,
Since upstream version 2.00, a GRUB2 PXE image fails to set
grub_net_default_server and so is unable to proceed with booting.
I built the image with:
