Bug#683067: grub doesn't start on iBook G4

Package: grub-ieee1275
Version: 1.99-22.1
Severity: normal

Hi,

I know, this is a very general report, but I can't tell you more. I've
build a grub image with all modules and copied it to the boot partition.

# grub-mkimage -O powerpc-ieee1275 --prefix='(hd,apple4)/boot/grub' -o /boot/grub/grub -v /usr/lib/grub/powerpc-ieee1275/*.mod(:t:r)

I've started this image, but it prints only:

  Welcome to GRUB!

  incompatible license
  Aborted. Press any key to exit.

and stops. It doesn't show the normal menu or the rescue prompt. The same
grub.cfg works for the version 1.99-12, I'm currently using.

If you have any patches or any hints, let me know.

Bye, Jörg.
