Package: grub-efi-arm
Version: 2.02~beta3-5+deb9u1
Severity: important
Dear Maintainer,
* What led up to the situation?
Install grub (bootarm.efi) and update-grub on armhf system.
* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
ineffective)?
We pass the device tree from u-boot to GRUB2 via UEFI systab. It is
not automatically used by the current version of grub so we have to
manually execute "devicetree" and point it to a device tree binary
file. However even with this manual intervention, the kernel still
hangs. The problem does not occur on arm64 systems or the GRUB2
version in Ubuntu 18.04.
* What was the outcome of this action?
System hangs trying to boot the kernel.
* What outcome did you expect instead?
System boots normally like its arm64 equivalent.
