I wonder, why EFI/UEFI and GPt booting (which should be more advanced) is more limited than classic MBR/boot0 + boot1 + loader scheme :-( Serial console support is worse. Selection of boot partition is not supported (as opposide to very-simple-516-bytes boot0!), and so on :-( --=20 // Lev Serebryakov --4vBUxWgO5HMTuL93seqi8ZqkmEQ6gbIA0-- --IGgAEsiYzbouIFw8EdDGwslCqjSnSu40K Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: OpenPGP digital signature Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQKTBAEBCgB9FiEE+W0coLX0MYtnSzMK6rA8WL/cR48FAlxBz9tfFIAAAAAALgAo aXNzdWVyLWZwckBub3RhdGlvbnMub3BlbnBncC5maWZ0aGhvcnNlbWFuLm5ldEY5 NkQxQ0EwQjVGNDMxOEI2NzRCMzMwQUVBQjAzQzU4QkZEQzQ3OEYACgkQ6rA8WL/c R4+KDxAAm/2qH69TPYR/iAT9ersWG8RdpDtGsWSp3XE5win49+NpoT/lau0ADh6f lGwX3clATGr1FrFAFZhjp4KLVS0wNAiVNKTU0niuQaipTgIUwNhqaPZ8+LscciIV VnOSyHA4kLWKoA8VzhoWvEMKRKmVbDJd5E70t/oVGGh0tgVEKwD/+CKZzW9IV08Q BZEKDfJEb6lDnKux1SZ2NCUynv6HOYyGzR6tszjZW5wJkSB5CiI0blFwPdTvit6h /LL7eZlFo9sIwG3QgbrPc2IIk8SheiJ7MqUPoGin1D5Xy/7CWKpJhvLtt44t7Q6j IuLSVt1up7Q6EFfTmHxaSmQRE9Qd+K7y+sY6zMwBz9CuzgJG6tfRBBSAHvn0i6IB HqwTfOiwAtNNSXhjz+f08irpccxOX89VdDVlQVNxT0KDY2rOrm558miJC5eX0LQT BID2oFE1oojuiLXGDkXomfgNx5u9RZbc0arv0wuhdf0MGw/OKPwtYVeNtLSx+IEz prD2vjCN3EJtQBS3alWn0uJ/E5i9jM0sCLExkQ4N6TEkhzQ/VoJE1YSabVUtqnmN iYv+uuPpv/Ot21gpAoY7fNTldr/6TpS6Z/o0y4Y4jGUNs8IcFnpJvzTMfTbd2jmf BrqHyfXTXsphVxeMXbIjy6xd+raEyXcxDz9D/nVKIxBluFizv7k= =r08+ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --IGgAEsiYzbouIFw8EdDGwslCqjSnSu40K--
