I have successfully tested GRUB on a PRIMEPOWER 250 with SPARC64 V+ (see [1]). The problem is that the Linux kernel doesn't work on any Fujitsu SPARC64 gear currently, not even on newer M-class machines (see [2]).

That reminds me: I will have a look at your two sparc64 patches
tomorrow to make sure people can install GRUB on setups with
GPT partition tables.


So anything like this is a waste of time to try ?

$ psrinfo -pv
The physical processor has 8 virtual processors (0-7)
  SPARC64-VII+ (portid 1024 impl 0x7 ver 0xa1 clock 2860 MHz)


Or does one need to do a cross compile from some other platform of a kernel?
