When using 'search' on EFI systems, we sometimes want to exclude devices that are not EFI disks (e.g. md, lvm). This is typically used when wanting to chainload when having a software raid (md) for EFI partition: with no option, 'search --file /EFI/redhat/shimx64.efi' sets root envvar to 'md/boot_efi' which cannot be used for chainloading since there is no effective EFI device behind.
This set of patches also refactor handling of --no-floppy option. Changes in this version compared to reviewed one (PATCH v3, by Daniel): - split --no-floppy refactoring (patch 2/3) - fixed unitialized declaration of stack variable 'flags' (patch 2/3) - documented --efidisk-only option (patch 3/3) _______________________________________________ Grub-devel mailing list Grub-devel@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/grub-devel
