From 8a2c5525b227e8f09e3b068236eebf619eae5393 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Sebastian Pipping Date: Tue, 4 Aug 2015 13:09:29 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] Ensure that MBR jumping to GRUB's core.img code Previously, bootgrub.mksh took that job but we just resolved it. New approach based as done on [1] but with copying 440 bytes only (rather than 446), to keep existing disk identifier in place [2].
