Apologies for my mistake, you are correct. The error message was
originated from the firmware, and i am not blaming grub. But the thing
is could you tell me what does "cannot load image" mean?
Well technically speaking, if you have a better error message than
mine then please tell me or improve it. My point is there must be some
better error message than "cannot load image". And yes i received that
message, trying to resolve it for 2 days because i didn't know what i
was meant. Well when i added this code well i know now. Please make
the error more descriptive.
My issue was i encountered from chainload command is because
`LoadImage()` was returning `EFI_UNSUPPORTED`.
My patch addresses this issue, i spent doing the hard work myself
instead of reporting as an enhancement, so apologies my mistakes.

Please could you clarify, if there is some issue still there.
