@arvidjaar: Wherever we have a UEFI bootloader available, we _are_ using grub2. This however is for U-Boot bootloader, which is stopping to support its by default disabled `CONFIG_API` option that grub2's `uboot` platform support relies on - I reported this on their mailing list and they refused to fix, e.g., sunxi for v2015.10, pointing to

That's not the impression I got from this discussion. They (U-Boot developers) do not see it as priority task, but they won't refuse fixing it, especially as there are other consumers of API besides GRUB.

this extlinux.conf mechanism, which they [document](http://git.denx.de/?p=u-boot.git;a=blob;f=doc/README.distro;h=9e4722a86ee562...) as their preference for distros over the single-kernel boot.scr mechanism we use today. Another problem with grub2 is that it needs to be patched per board, so a single package does not work. See for

It is trivial to expose link address as configure parameter; would it be useful for you? Ultimate solution is to support relocation in U-Boot. Do you know if it was considered, and what is opinion of U-Boot developers to it?

example my [Jetson TK1 grub2 installation guide](https://en.opensuse.org/HCL:JetsonTK1#Installing_GRUB2). Even worse, my modified grub2 builds proved to be rather unreliable on the Jetson TK1, often not getting to any prompt or menu. If you want to

Well, there was not much activity w.r.t. ARM post original submission of Leif; there was one specific fix I can remember. Someone would of course need to debug it. Sure, we miss active ARM maintainer in GRUB.

discuss grub2 further, I suggest you post to opensuse-arm mailing list instead.

I still think that from distribution PoV focusing on single bootloader is beneficial and hope we can find solution. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-arm+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-arm+owner@opensuse.org
