Subject: templates/boot/grub/addons: use chainloader instead of linuxefi
X-Git-Tag: v0.47.0~1

templates/boot/grub/addons: use chainloader instead of linuxefi

As of grub2 2.12~rc1-1 the linuxefi module is no longer available:

| grub2 (2.12~rc1-1) experimental; urgency=medium
|
|   [ Julian Andres Klode ]
|   * New upstream version, 2.12~rc1
|   * build-efi-images: Drop linuxefi, using new loaders now
| [...]

So loading the memtest EFI file then fails with:

| error: can't find command `linuxefi'.

Use chainloader instead, to boot into the memtest EFI.
