Source: grub-efi Severity: normal Tags: upstream background: I am attempting to network boot a early mac mini (core solo 32 bit/ 32bit efi) with debian. My netboot server runs debian and other diskless boxes boot debian and other operating systems from this server. One severe problem I have is finding a functional boot loader. One of the more interesting failures was when I assembled a 32 bit efi grub image with all modules from the stable binary. This errored out with incompatible license. Using the tool by Sukminder (http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/74087 /grub-incompatible-license-error) I narrowed it down to the module adler23.mod the problem whent away when this module was not included. I checked the source from git and this module should be gpl3+. It appears arch linux has a similar problem with a different module, so I suspect something fragile in the build system from upstream.
