RE: How to build grub.efi out of Grub Legacy code?

[Zhan, Beilei]

Thanks for your reply.

I would use 2.0 if it provides stable EFI boot. Unfortunately it doesn’t work well with the kernel I am using.

Is there any requirement for the kernel (like version or certain patch) to boot with Grub2 EFI?

 

Thanks,

Betty

Does anyone know how to build grub.efi from Grub “Legacy” (not Grub2) source code?

You don't. That is why it is legacy and has been replaced with 2.0.

But you could try to dig out the pile of patches the Red Hat has been maintaining for years.
