Description

Tails 2.0 includes GRUB2 2.02~beta2-22+deb8u1, that hasn’t our patches (Tails 1.8.2 had 2.02~beta2-22tails1). As a result, 32-bit UEFI boot is broken. Regression against 1.8.2.

Fixes the problem on the 32-bit UEFI laptop that allowed me to identify it in the first place. Should not affect any other use case, since 32-bit UEFI is the only reason we include GRUB2 for.

#3 Updated by intrigeri 2016-01-27 21:06:43

Please merge into stable and devel (we want this fix in 2.0.1 if we have to put it out, IMO).

I couldn’t test it on the affected hardware since I do not have access to any, but I trust your testing of it, obviously.
