Configure GRUB2 bootloader and set boot options
Configure the system to use GRUB2 as the bootloader, and set boot options.
Sets the GRUB2 boot/root filesystem to rootfs
. If a separated boot
partition is used it can be specified via bootfs
. The file-systems
can be identified either via uuid (\{"uuid": "\<uuid\>"\}
) or label
(\{"label": "\<label\>"\}
). The kernel boot argument will be composed
of the root file system id and additional options specified in
\{kernel_opts\}
, if any.
Configures GRUB2 to boot via the Boot Loader Specification
(https://systemd.io/BOOT_LOADER_SPECIFICATION), which is the default
behavior in Fedora 30 and later.
This stage will overwrite /etc/default/grub
, /boot/grub2/grubenv
, and
/boot/grub2/grub.cfg
. (Leading directories will be created if not present.)
If Legacy boot support is requested via legacy
this stage will also
overwrite /boot/grub2/grub.cfg
and will copy the GRUB2 files from the
buildhost into the target tree:
/usr/share/grub/unicode.pf2
->/boot/grub2/fonts/
/usr/lib/grub/$platform/*.\{mod,lst\}
->/boot/grub2/$platform/
- NOTE: skips
fdt.lst
, which is an empty file The $platform variable (default: i386-pc) refers to target platform that grub2 is mean to ran on (see grub-install(1)'s--target
) NB: with legacy support enabled, this stage will fail if the buildhost doesn't have/usr/lib/grub/$platform/
and/usr/share/grub/unicode.pf2
. If UEFI support is enabled viauefi: \{"vendor": "\<vendor\>"\}
this stage will also write thegrub.cfg
toboot/efi/EFI/\<vendor\>/grub.cfg
. EFI binaries and accompanying data can be installed from the built root viauefi.install
. Both UEFI and Legacy can be specified at the same time (hybrid boot). Ifuefi.unified
is specified or hybrid boot is enabled, the main grub config will be written toboot/grub2/grub.cfg
and a redirect config will be placed in the EFI directory. If thesaved_entry
option is present it will result in an entry in thegrubenv
file of the same name. The grub config file contains logic so that this variable will be used to select the next boot entry. This will also make grub2-reboot and grub2-set-default tools work. It will also prevent newly installed non-default kernels (like e.g. the debug kernel) to be selected as default. The contents of variable needs to match the corresponding loader entry, which currently is a combination of the machine id and kernel NVRA, like e.g.:ffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff-5.6.6-300.fc32.x86_64
Ifsaved_entry
is set it is advisable to setconfig.default
tosaved
so that any re-creation of the grub configuration by the user will preserve that functionality. Support for "greenboot" can be turned on via thegreenboot
option. Greenboot is the idea of automatically rolling back bad updates, i.e. updates that do not boot successfully. The implementation is split between the boot loader and a user space component. The latter sets two variablesboot_counter
, which indicates the maximum number of boot attempts andboot_success
which tells the boot laoder if a previous boot was successful. The bootloader on the other hand will decrement the counter variable and reset the success indicator one. An implementation of the user space component for rpm-ostree is calledgreenboot
. Support for ignition (https://github.com/coreos/ignition) can be turned on via theignition
option. If enabled, a 'ignition_firstboot' variable will be created, which is meant to be included in the kernel command line. The grub.cfg will then contain the necessary code to detect and source the '/boot/ignition.firstboot' file and configure said 'ignition_firstboot' variable appropriately. See the 'org.osbuild.ignition' stage for more information on that file.
