Re: PXE-Grub has no menu - File not found

Hi Andrey,

Hard to tell without knowing what previous version was. I'm afraid in

this case your only possibility is to bisect (man git-bisect) to find
commit that broke things.

I went all the way back to Jan 2014 to find a working build as starting point (git branch <name> && git reset --hard <rev>). None of them worked. The last working Grub binary was from mid-March (I can tell from the folder creation dates on the system).

I had also been forced to switch from Grub to BTX on the main system about a month ago, because Grub was not able to boot my ZFS system (I had to go through a complex rescue).

It makes me wonder whether there is some error injected into the Grub compile by FreeBSD-11? Does not make much sense, but I thought it might be worth considering. Are there any compile flags worth trying?

GRUB2 will be compiled with following components:

Platform: i386-pc

With devmapper support: No (need libdevmapper header)

With memory debugging: No

With disk cache statistics: No

With boot time statistics: No

efiemu runtime: No (explicitly disabled)

grub-mkfont: Yes

grub-mount: No (need FUSE library)

starfield theme: No (No DejaVu found)

With libzfs support: No (need zfs library)

Build-time grub-mkfont: No (no fonts)

Without unifont (no build-time grub-mkfont)

With liblzma from -llzma (support for XZ-compressed mips images)

Then gmake runs and completes without error.
