Add BIOS Boot Partition support for sparc64 platforms. This will work a little different than x86. With GPT, both the OBP "load" and "boot" commands are partition aware and neither command can see the partition table. Therefore the entire boot-loader is stored within the BIOS Boot Partition and nothing is stored within the bootstrap code area of MBR. To use it, the end user will issue the boot command with the path pointing to the BIOS Boot Partition. For example with the disk below: Model: Unknown (unknown) Disk /dev/nvme1n1: 1600GB Sector size (logical/physical): 512B/512B Partition Table: gpt Number Start End Size File system Name Flags 1 1049kB 1075MB 1074MB ext3 2 1075MB 1076MB 1049kB bios_grub 3 1076MB 1600GB 1599GB lvm To boot grub2 from OBP, you would use: boot /pci@302/pci@1/pci@0/pci@13/nvme@0/disk@1:b Signed-off-by: Eric Snowberg <eric.snowberg@oracle.com> Reviewed-by: Daniel Kiper <daniel.kiper@oracle.com> |

This is GRUB 2, the second version of the GRand Unified Bootloader. GRUB 2 is rewritten from scratch to make GNU GRUB cleaner, safer, more robust, more powerful, and more portable. See the file NEWS for a description of recent changes to GRUB 2. See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install the GRUB 2 data and program files. Please visit the official web page of GRUB 2, for more information. The URL is <http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/grub.html>. More extensive documentation is available in the Info manual, accessible using 'info grub' after building and installing GRUB 2. There are a number of important user-visible differences from the first version of GRUB, now known as GRUB Legacy. For a summary, please see: info grub Introduction 'Changes from GRUB Legacy'
