Grub2 with sparc64 patches

[louis ayotte <pocketpc2004@live.ca>]

Hi everyone,

I made sure to install the correct version of this package as can be
seen here;

# apt-cache policy grub2
grub2:
  Installed: 2.02~beta3-3+sparc64
  Candidate: 2.02~beta3-3+sparc64
  Version table:
 *** 2.02~beta3-3+sparc64 500
        500 http://deb.debian.org/debian-ports unreleased/main sparc64
Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
     2.02~beta3-3 500
        500 http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian-ports sid/main sparc64 Packages
        500 http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian-ports unstable/main sparc64
Packages

Then tried to install it (T5240, /dev/sdb1 (ext2) for /boot and
/dev/sdb2 (ext4) for / )

# grub-install --boot-directory=/boot /dev/sdb
Installing for sparc64-ieee1275 platform.
grub-install: warning: Embedding is not possible.  GRUB can only be
installed in this setup by using blocklists.  However, blocklists are
UNRELIABLE and their use is discouraged..
grub-install: error: will not proceed with blocklists.

Thanks to everyone involved!
