Sorry -- prefix is the wrong term. It is interesting that you're
going beyond what I thought, though; I thought you were just going
to do what grub-mkrescue did by creating the platform subdirs and
putting grub.cfg in there that does platform-specific stuff then
sources ../grub.cfg; I think that was a good approach, since you
ended up with the generic entries in the ../grub.cfg file and
platform-specific goodness in the platform dirs.
For now can you please check-in
grub-mkconfig-Use_outside_GRUB_PREFIX_if_defined.patch (file
attached). I can't think of any other way more simple than this. For
usage like (as root)
# GRUB_PREFIX="/boot/efi/efi/grub" grub-mkconfig -o
/boot/efi/efi/grub/grub.cfg
Without the rest it's an inconsistent kludge.
This is definitely not the best or the long-term solution but for now
this will suffice (till the actual option to be used is decided).
Thanks in advance.
Regards.
Keshav
