I have 2 environments I can do things in: grub2 (on coreboot/libreboot), and linux. I could also try to make ipxe into a libreboot payload, but that seems like it would definitely be harder than getting grub2 working. linux will only boot another os using kexec, which only linux implements, so it's out. grub2 on coreboot's main limitation is it does not support network boot or bios chainloading. So, no pxe chaining to ixpe. I tried the latest http://boot.ipxe.org/ipxe.lkrn using grub2's linux16 command. Same result, black screen for a few seconds then back to grub. The other way libreboot's default grub config will boot for usb is syslinux_config command, which according to the cli help "executes syslinux config in same context", anyways, it does not work on the ipxe.iso or ipxe.usb. Perhaps there is some other grub2 config or command to use? Note, I've found that grub2 has changed somewhat significantly since the latest online manual was published, and some commands are only documented in the cli and source code. _______________________________________________ ipxe-devel mailing list ipxe-devel@lists.ipxe.org https://lists.ipxe.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/ipxe-devel
