Description Alexander Zubkov 2012-10-16 18:11:05 UTC

grub version 2.00 have problems with TFTP, some endianess issues. It is fixed in repository, but not released yet:
http://bzr.savannah.gnu.org/lh/grub/trunk/grub/revision/4548
Bug report:
http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?func=detailitem&item_id=36755

Please backport this patch into portage if possible. Beacuse it makes impossible making netboot using 2.00 version of grub, which we have now.
