Hi, i made a hopefully harmless change to grub-install-common.c in order to avoid that backup files of /boot/grub/locale/*.mo get copied into the resulting ISO image of grub-mkrescue when more than one platform-target combination is configured. E.g. "x86_64-efi" together with "i386-pc". Begin of the thread which led to my change proposal: "Duplicate files /boot/grub/locale/*.mo~ in iso file made by grub-mkrescue" https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-grub/2025-05/msg00028.html The change in question is in https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-grub/2025-06/msg00000.html
All my experiments with grub-mkrescue look like i did not damage the backup functionality which old grub-mkrescue shares with grub-install. Nevertheless i should test grub-install directly. But i fail to find the word "grub-install" in GRUB's "./tests" tree. Are there examples available how to test grub-install from the git tree as sandbox user without endangering the system's bootably-installed GRUB ? Have a nice day :) Thomas _______________________________________________ Grub-devel mailing list Grub-devel@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/grub-devel
