book3e bootloader recommendation should point to grub-ieee1275

[Andy Whitcroft]

The original idea of a grub-kexec never happened. These platforms need at
least grub-ieee1275 to generate grub.cfg, so recommended that instead.

Hi;

How and when will this be implemented ?

Will future 3.13.0-24-powerpc-e500mc installs configure grub.cfg ?

This bug is awaiting verification that the kernel in -proposed solves the problem. Please test the kernel and update this bug with the results. If the problem is solved, change the tag 'verification-needed-trusty' to 'verification-done-trusty'.

If verification is not done by 5 working days from today, this fix will be dropped from the source code, and this bug will be closed.

See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to enable and use -proposed. Thank you!

Hi,
 This change needs applied to a ISO image for installation; Where can
I locate that image ?

Regards,
 John.

This fix needs applied to a ISO image ; Where can I find that image at ?

[[e-mail] (john-d-0)]

The ISO procedure for https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/QATracker is based on Intel x86 using virtbox. It does not address ppc test cases.
