I believe you are running out of memory here because grub is trying
to load all those frame buffer modules within your config.

And then it didn’t find one that worked.
For this, I believe you are having the same problem as Frans. Could
you add the following to /etc/default/grub:
GRUB_TERMINAL_OUTPUT="console"
GRUB_DISABLE_RECOVERY="true"
GRUB_PRELOAD_MODULES=“iso9660"
and then regenerate your grub.cfg with grub-mkconfig.
Adrian,
I don’t plan on adding frame buffer support since newer systems don’t
have them. Would it be possible to change your grub package to
include a /etc/default/grub file for SPARC with the changes above?
We do the same thing with our grub rpm.
Oh, absolutely. Thanks for the suggestion. This was just the first
package and I'm happy to include
all improvements that are necessary.
Adrian
