Thank you very much Colin.

Hi All,

I am able to boot my machine with linux kernel 2.6.32.28 from EFI shell
after following the instructions http://grub.enbug.org/TestingOnMacbook

Plug-in the USB stick on EFI firmware/Shell supported x86 32bit target
board. Edit the BIOS and change the boot priority to EFI shell. After target
is booted on EFI shell execute the below commands
*
*
*Shell> fs1:*
*fs1:\> cd efi*
*fs1:\efi> cd grub*
*fs1:\efi\grub> grub.efi*
*
*
*
*
*grub> set debug=video*
*grub> insmod efi_gop*
*grub> boot*

*But when I created a grub.cfg file and try to boot, my machine will show *
*
*
*"video/efi_gop:357: GOP: Sucess"*
*
*
*and hangs......*
*
*
*
*
*Any idea what is wrong with grub.cfg file or with my USB disk partitions ?*
*
*
My *grub.cfg* file contents are as below

============================================
*set debug=video*
*insmod efi_gop*
*
*
*menuentry "Linux Kernel-2.6.32.28 (Single Image)" {*
* linux (hd2,gpt2)/bzImage*
*}*
*
*
*menuentry "Linux-2.6.32.28 Kernel with custom ramdisk image" {*
* linux (hd2,gpt2)/bzImage*
* initrd (hd2,gpt2)/ramdisk.img*
*}*
===============================================================================

My USB disk partitions are as below
================================================================================
*Lenovo-Y310 nareshbhat # parted /dev/sdb*
*GNU Parted 2.3*
*Using /dev/sdb*
