Bug#846637: live-wrapper: grub2 memtest86 fails with "error: version too old for 32-bit boot"



Package: live-wrapper
Version: 0.5
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

a live ISO booted via UEFI (so using grub2) fails to run memtest86.

Live ISO built with:
lwr --memtest -d unstable

Tested on QEMU with:
qemu-system-x86_64 -enable-kvm -m 2048 -bios /usr/share/ovmf/OVMF.fd -hda
live.iso

Selecting the memtest86 option results in the GRUB error:
"error: version too old for 32-bit boot"

The memtest86 option works fine when booted via MBR (no QEMU -bios option).

Kind regards,
Ben.
