Amazing - thank you for all the hard work you've put into this! I've just had a look
in your home directory on people.debian.org for the GRUB test ISO but I can't see it
- have you removed it pending application of your patches?

Patches look good, although the second patch still uses /boot/grub/sparc64.elf
instead of /boot/grub/core.img for the grub-mkimage output parameter - is that correct?


ATB,

Mark.
