* bootimg: Use the same OS files for each boot methodDarren Hart2012-02-071-19/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Fixes [YOCTO #1951] The do_bootimg code can generate hybrid efi+pcbios images (syslinux and grub-efi) to boot on platforms with both EFI and legacy BIOS options. The current implementation copies the kernel, initrd, and rootfs twice, unnecessarily bloating the image size. This is an especially egregious bug on -sato images. Update the classes to use a common install of the kernel, initrd, and rootfs to the root of the boot media. Grub-efi, syslinux, and isolinux can all reference this location explicitly with a leading slash. Tested with an EFI+PCBIOS image in both EFI and PCBIOS boot modes on two platforms. No ISO image testing was performed. Signed-off-by: Darren Hart <dvhart@linux.intel.com>
* grub-efi: Use /EFI/BOOT now that mkdosfs -d works with directoriesDarren Hart2011-12-161-15/+3
| | | | | | | | | | [Yocto 1783] prevented us from using a proper /EFI/BOOT path in the live images due to a bug in the -d patch for mkdosfs in dosfstools. With this now fixed, we can place the efi payload where it belongs per spec and the images will autoboot to the grub menu on EFI platforms.

* bootimage: Use ${S} explicitly for generated config filesDarren Hart2011-12-021-5/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The syslinux and grub-efi classes were generating config files in the current working directory. This caused a failure due to a race in the creation of the directories leading to cwd changing and the build failing to find the config files. While this has been addressed in bitbake, it is better to use an explicit path. While ${WORKDIR} may seem a more appropriate place, the recipe already uses ${S} for the "hdd" and "cd" construction, so we use ${S} here to keep things consolidated and consistent and address the issue with minimal change.

* bootimg: Add grub-efi supportDarren Hart2011-11-301-0/+140
Create a new grub-efi.bbclass and integrate it into bootimg alongside the syslinux support. This new class uses the output from the grub-efi-native recipe. Thanks goes to Josef Ahmad <josef.ahmad@intel.com> for the original build_grub_cfg() routine. The EFI features are only added to the image if MACHINE_FEATURES contains "efi". The resulting images are therefor either legacy boot only (like they were originally) or legacy boot and EFI boot. A new "dummy.bbclass" was added to allow for the conditional include of grub-efi. This makes it so if efi support is not to be built in, we don't spend time building grub-efi-native just because the include adds the dependency. There is a bug in the mkdosfs tool from the dosfstools package which causes it to crash when the directory passed with the -d parameter contains sub-directories. An /EFI/BOOT directory is required for a proper EFI installation. Until it is fixed, we install to the top level directory for the hddimg.
