sudo update-grub doesn't change entries in menu.lst (grub 1.95)
by shirish 29 Jan '08

29 Jan '08

Hi all, This might be no longer the matter at head but since I've the issue hence posting the same. Might be a repost in which I'm sorry. I'm running grub 1.95+20071101-1 release on Hardy. This is the pastebin of menu.lst http://pastebin.ca/877007 while this is the pastebin of grub.cfg http://pastebin.ca/877010 when I do sudo update-grub I get this :- shirish@Mugglewille:~$ sudo update-grub [sudo] password for shirish: Updating /boot/grub/grub.cfg ... Found linux image: /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.24-5-generic Found initrd image: /boot/initrd.img-2.6.24-5-generic Found linux image: /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.24-4-generic Found initrd image: /boot/initrd.img-2.6.24-4-generic Found linux image: /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.24-2-generic Found initrd image: /boot/initrd.img-2.6.24-2-generic Found memtest86+ image: /boot/memtest86+.bin done Now this doesn't effect menu.lst & unfortunately grub2 doesn't work (the menu doesn't work something to do with unifont.pff). So each time I've to manually add entries to /boot/grub/menu.lst to tell where the new kernels are. Any ideas, suggestions other than installing grub 0.97 ? -- Regards, Shirish Agarwal This email is licensed under http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/3.0/ 065C 6D79 A68C E7EA 52B3 8D70 950D 53FB 729A 8B17

CoreBIOS: a viable option for me?
by Brendan Trotter 28 Jan '08

28 Jan '08

Hi, I want to use something like LinuxBIOS/Coreboot to allow my software to be installed as "boot from ROM" by end-users. Previously (many months ago) I assessed LinuxBIOS and found that it wasn't a viable option, as my payload would need to be constantly updated to reflect changes in LinuxBIOS, and I couldn't have a single payload that worked regardless of which (past, present and future) version of LinuxBIOS/Coreboot the end-user installs. As LinuxBIOS/Coreboot is *almost* exactly what I'm looking for, I'm wondering if this situation has changed or if it's likely to change in future; or if LinuxBIOS/Coreboot will never be a viable option. Specifically, I need something that puts the computer into a well defined state and passes information to the payload in a well defined manner. This implies that any future changes to the firmware are either transparent to the payload, or that future changes preserve backward compatibility for the payload. Note: This doesn't mean that Coreboot couldn't be extended, only that the payload would need to detect (via. a well defined method) which version of Coreboot is present before using features/information added in later versions. Basically, I want to implement code that complies with some sort of "Coreboot Specification" and know that my code will work for all (past, present and future) versions of Coreboot, and that end-users will be able to independently update the version of Coreboot they're using or the version of my software they're using without compatibility problems between different versions of both projects. Cheers, Brendan

Another tool that can help us.
by Urbez Santana Roma 28 Jan '08

28 Jan '08

I have write a new release of a tool that i named RemoteBIOS. This tool, can help us, to test your Coreboot development for new mainboards. If one is interesting on this tool, can download it in Sourceforge. Is only in the first stage of a more complex project. I use for my mainboards, and help me a bit. Also the project have a subtool needed for build the project, that helps to compile with gcc, using a virtual MMX or XMM stack. Sorry, can not be valid for all machines.
