[PATCH] image: Consider grub-efi-removable-bootloader to be EFI bootloader. |
Date: |
Mon, 15 Jan 2024 22:57:35 +0100 |
Without this change, trying to create a system image with efi-raw type while
using grub-efi-removable-bootloader fails with fairly confusing message:
EFI bootloader required with GPT partitioning
* gnu/system/image.scm (system-disk-image): Consider
grub-efi-removable-bootloader to be EFI bootloader.

Looks good, applied. I agree the error message is misleading. Would you
like to give a try at rewording it? The goal is to prevent the failing
combination GPT + non-EFI bootloader.
Thanks,
Mathieu
