Thank you for your help, I have changed my operation, but my coreboot

still step to grub.

/****************************************************************************************************/
I have added "grub_printf("Enter grub_main()!\n")" in the top of
grub_main()(defined in grub-core/kern/main.c). Unfortunately, nothing
can be printed out when booting. I don't know it is stopped before grub
C code or I don't open some grub2 option which close the standard output
mode.

 2011/5/31 Cui Lei<address@hidden>:
 I am working hard at building coreboot with grub2 payload. Now  I can build
 a grub2 payload as follow:
 1: Download the lastest grub2 source code.
 2: ./autogen.sh
      ./configure --with-platform=coreboot
       make
 3: Use grub-mkimage to generate a "payload.elf", detail:
      ./grub-mkimage -d . -O i386-coreboot -o ../coreboot-v4/payload.elf
 --prefix='/boot/grub2'
        memdisk cpio -m ../memdisk.tar

      Accoding the coreboot website(http://www.coreboot.org/Talk:GRUB2),
 memdisk is a virtual disk
      in grub image and it is suggested that grub.cfg is contained in a
 memdisk image. So I made
      folders boot/grub2 in my work folder and add a new grub.cfg and some
 modules(such as
      memdisk.mod cpio.mod ...) into the boot/grub2, then tar boot/grub2 to
 memdisk.tar(according
      to the website tar can be used to build a memdisk image).

 Problems:
      1: I don't know wether grub2 can found my grub.cfg ,if I set  "
 --prefix='/boot/grub2' " ?
          On the coreboot website,a sample is  --prefix='(ata0)/boot/grub2'. I
 think the ata0 is hard disk.
          but I use the memdisk image, what should I do ?

 I use this to create a custom grub2 efi app with memdisk embedded -

 /bin/grub-mkimage --directory=/usr/lib/grub/x86_64-efi
 --memdisk="${memdisk_64_img}" --prefix='(memdisk)/efi/grub2'
 --format=x86_64-efi --compression=xz
 --output="${grub2_efi_mp}/efi/boot/bootx64.efi" ${GRUB2_MODULES}

 Hope this helps.

      2: I want my grub.cfg in memdisk to load the grub.cfg from my hard disk.
 Because I have install the
          ubuntu11.04 on my hard disk, a grub.cfg file should be in the
 /boot/grub. So my grub.cfg just like
          this:
                  search -f -s /boot/grub/grub.cfg
                  configfile /boot/grub/grub.cfg

          Is this practicable?

 Make it

   search --file --no-floppy --set=root /boot/grub/grub.cfg
   configfile (${root})/boot/grub/grub.cfg

      3: I want the gurb can boot into the grub-shell, how to ?

 I can't understand the question. You want grub to boot into
 grub-shell? Don't create a ${prefix}/grub.cfg file.

 BRs,

 Rock.C
