Hello to GRUB community, I continued to explore and read the documentations, and so far I was not able to boot from my GRUB made and install from original GRUB package.
I had all tools installed in /usr/local/sbin (all relevant tools), and then executed the following command: grub-install --boot-directory=/media/rootfs/boot --directory=/usr/local/lib/grub/i386-coreboot target=x86_64 It installed for me everything on the target HDD (mounted on /media/rootfs), in the directory /media/rootfs/boot/grub/i386-coreboot (I found there file core.elf, size 105K). But I also used the following command from the same /usb/local/sbin: grub-mkimage --directory=/usr/local/lib/grub/i386-coreboot -o /media/rootfs/boot/grub/core.img -O i386-coreboot And this command built for me core.img in /media/rootfs/boot/grub of size 27K. It seems that these two files are identical, till the end of file, where core.img has directory in ascii: /boot/grub I try to embed both files consecutively in coreboot as payload, in sincere hope to boot to MBR and get the grub> prompt. But I did not succeed, and my IVB platform stopped at Post Code 0x00F8 (PEI_RECOVERY_PPI_NOT_FOUND) instead stopping to (0x00A3) DXE IDE Detect. Any clue what I am doing wrong?
