Source: linux
Version: 5.9.11-1
Severity: important
X-Debbugs-Cc: pkg-grub-devel@alioth-lists.debian.net

Dear Maintainer,

grub-efi-arm:armel package remains almost unusable for very long time.
To boot a kernel in UEFI mode, it must be compiled with CONFIG_EFI.
But no Debian armel kernel (specifically linux-image-marvell or
linux-image-rpi) is built with CONFIG_EFI.
This leaves armel grub-efi-arm package almost useless.

For example, trying to boot linux-image-marvell by grub-efi-arm:armel
shows the following message:

Welcome to GRUB!

error: no suitable video mode found.
  Booting `Debian GNU/Linux'

Loading Linux 5.9.0-4-marvell ...
error: plain image kernel not supported - rebuild with CONFIG_(U)EFI_STUB
enabled.
Loading initial ramdisk ...
error: you need to load the kernel first.

On the other hand, grub-efi-arm:armel can boot linux-image-armmp:armhf.

This feature/bug leaves grub-efi-arm:armel almost useless,
so I chose "important" priority.

Best regards, Ryutaroh Matsumoto

Hi

This bug was filed for a very old kernel or the bug is old itself
without resolution.

If you can reproduce it with

- the current version in unstable/testing
- the latest kernel from backports

please reopen the bug, see https://www.debian.org/Bugs/server-control
for details.

Regards,
Salvatore
