[讨论]grub2 不能引导软盘img镜像启动的问题？

#1

帖子 由 fatality » 2009-10-30 10:21

比如要加载(hd1,1)根目录下的 a.img 镜像，先把 memdisk 从 memdisk.gz 中解压出来，用法是:
linux16 (hd1,1)/memdisk #镜像文件超过2.88M要加上 c=* h=* s=*
initrd16 (hd1,1)/a.img
boot

但是可能有bug，在我这引导img镜像会导致死机。不知道大家是不是都这样？
如果是，英文好的朋友，不妨去官网反应一下。必竟，引导img镜像，是一项非常有用的功能。感谢！

Subject: [hdt] Build a bootable floppy image which contains HDT
Message-ID: <696194.73255.qm@web24612.mail.ird.yahoo.com>

It is now possible to build a bootable floppy image which contains HDT,
with my patch applied to Erwans HDT branch:

http://git.zytor.com/?p=users/erwan/hdt ... b71218d871

Unpack the Syslinux archive and build whole Syslinux first,
then cd to ./com32/hdt/ and make hdt.img

$ make
$ cd ./com32/hdt/
$ make hdt.img

Now you have a 2.88 MB floppy image which contains HDT (hdt.img),
which you can use to boot with MEMDISK or Grub4Dos floppy emulation.

MEMDISK:
========

LABEL hdtfloppy
LINUX memdisk
INITRD hdt.img

Grub4Dos floppy emulation:
==========================

title Hardware Detection Tool
map --mem /hdt.img (fd0)
map --hook
root (fd0)
chainloader (fd0)+1


You can also compress hdt.img with gzip (hdt.img.gz), which results
in a much smaller file (400KB compared to 2.88MB).

MEMDISK:
========

LABEL hdtfloppy
LINUX memdisk
INITRD hdt.img.gz

Grub4Dos floppy emulation:
==========================

title Hardware Detection Tool
map --mem /hdt.img.gz (fd0)
map --hook
root (fd0)
chainloader (fd0)+1




More info can be found in the README:

---------------------------
Creating a bootable floppy
---------------------------
To build a bootable HDT floppy image, you can do a "make hdt.img" call.
This will requires the mtools (http://mtools.linux.lu) to be installed.
The script will try to pick several files from your system :
- /lib/modules/`uname -r`/modules.alias
- /lib/modules/`uname -r`/modules.pcimap
- /usr/share/pci.ids or /usr/share/hwdata/pci.ids

This paths can be overrided with the following command line:
make MODULES_ALIAS_FILE=$(PWD)/floppy/modules.alias MODULES_PCIMAP_FILE=$(PWD)/floppy/modules.pcimap PCI_IDS_FILE=$(PWD)/floppy/pci.ids hdt.img

If your system doesn't have pci.ids, please download it from http://pciids.sourceforge.net/ and put it into the floppy/ directory.

Message-ID: <4AE7681E.1000709@seanodes.com>

As result of a long work of Pierre, we are now on the track of releasing
HDT-0.3.5.

This -pre1 release includes new features that needs to be tested widely
to insure that we didn't introduced new bugs.
As a menu, we have:

- bootloader detection
In the disk menu, the "show disks" command reports the detected bootloader.

- Cmenu now uses the libansi
This improves the rendering and allow serial output.
Note that minicom doesn't seems to render correctly the ansi codes.

Speaking about the code itself, lots of cleanup to avoid gcc warnings.

To test this release you have 3 options :
Booting the com32 module on Syslinux 3.83 :
http://www.hdt-project.org/trac/raw-att ... 5_pre1.c32
Booting the 2.88MB floppy image:
http://www.hdt-project.org/trac/raw-att ... 5-pre1.img
Booting the ISO:
http://www.hdt-project.org/trac/raw-att ... 5-pre1.iso

Feel free to report any bug report/idea/comments !

PS: We've been opening a #hdt irc channel on the freenode network to
facilitate hdt discussions.
PS2: All Greetings goes to Pierre for his wonderful work on HDT.

This is a very good news indeed. Can I use it within grub2. My pendrive
already has grub2 bootloader and I like to include in my tool collection
in my pendrive.
Please enlighten me.

Thanks

The easiest way to achieve that is to boot the 2.88MB floppy image while
booting memdisk (from syslinux) as the Kernel.
That's more or less what Gert is doing on UBCD IIRC.

Erwan,

Thanks Erwan,

Grub2 can boot floppy image too. Does it need the memdisk too ?
Please let me know.

I never played with grub2 so if it can load floppies, you don't need
memdisk ;)
Don't hesitate to give us the feedback of your grub2 experiments.

Forgot to ask... where can I get the floppy image of HDT ?
Also like to know the append-able kernel config line.

thanks

Ok got the image. I have mounted it as loopback and fine these files

hdt.c32
ldlinux.sys
modules.alias
modules.pcimap
pci.ids
syslinux.cfg

Which one in the above is the kernel and initrd image ?

That was in the original post of this thread ;)

I don't really know about grub2.

What I found on the web is something like :

menuentry "HDT" {
linux /memdisk
initrd /hdt-0.3.5-pre1.img

}

Seems that we need to use linux16 instead of linux.

Try:
menuentry "HDT" {
linux16 /memdisk
initrd16 /hdt-0.3.5-pre1.img
}

Got it from:
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-g ... 00019.html

MEMDISK isn't a real linux kernel and doesn't go to 32-bit mode in the same way
as the linux kernel.

When you use linux in grub2, it won't run the 16 bit code of the linux kernel,
which will set the CPU mode to 32 bit again (so grub2 should be a bit faster),
like grub and syslinux did/do.

Yes, it needs 16 bit and I have tested here; it is working :-) Thanks Kim.

Though earlier I tried to exploit the native loopback feature of grub-2.
I used

menuentry "HDT"
{
loopback loop (hd0,2)/hdt-0.3.5-pre1.img
linux16 /memdisk
initrd16 (loop)/hdt.c32 modules_pcimap=modules.pcimap
modules_alias=modules.alias pciids=pci.ids
}

It did not work.

Thanks

This syntax isn't valid for me. Memdisk can't boot hdt.c32 directly.
HDT requires syslinux to be loaded as bootloader. That's why we do
create ISO/floppy images.

One additional feedback which I got from grub2 list. hdt.c32 is
founded over syslinux. Hence calling hdt.c32 module directly from grub2
will never work until grub2 satisfy the required environment for the
module. Hence not loopback but booting the image with memdisk is the
solution.
Thanks you all. Now I have hdt in my tool-chain collection housed in my
pendrive which is powered by grub2 :-) I don't need to boot a complete
linux distro to fireup lshw or other tool ; hdt is doing rocks
