2023-11-01grub.cfg: use better description in menu entriesLeah Rowe
more user friendly, especially the GRUB (USB) one Signed-off-by: Leah Rowe <leah@libreboot.org>
2023-10-31GRUB: don't spew "Unknown key 0xff" in errorLeah Rowe
Faulty keyboards make GRUB unusable. Normally it happens when a user plugs in a faulty USB keyboard, but if it's the laptop keyboard, then GRUB becomes unusable and the user cannot boot anything. So, your laptop keyboard is a ticking timebomb if you use GRUB; with this patch, that's no longer the case. Signed-off-by: Leah Rowe <leah@libreboot.org>
2023-10-31fix grub keyboard init on dell e6400 and e6430Leah Rowe
also, enable seabios_withgrub on e6400, but not grubfirst; right now, we also support dgpu which would brick on grubfirst. on my tested nvidia model, loading grub from seabios worked, so i'm going to re-add seabios_grubfirst functionality like in older libreboot revisions, enabled selectively on a given target. e6430 currently only has igpu support anyway, but i've done the same thing there, in anticipation of future dgpu support. e6400 and e6430 ec report scancode set 2 with translation by default, but only actually output scancode set 1 grub is trying to use scancode set 2 without scancode translation, so the key inputs get messed up fix it by forcing scancode set 2 with translation, but only on coreboot; other build targets on GRUB will retain the same behaviour as before courtesy goes to Nicholas Chin who inspired me, and helped me to fix this. tested on Nicholas's E6400 and E6430, and my E6400; Riku also tested it on non-Dell, as did I (some thinkpads), and all seems OK. The new behaviour in coreboot GRUB is essentially no different to that of SeaBIOS, which does the same. Signed-off-by: Leah Rowe <leah@libreboot.org>

2023-10-21change default volname in grub.cfgLeah Rowe
it's been a while since we did encrypted /boot and the current name sucks. it's unlikely that anyone still uses it, but people will soon change the default assumed lvm name to grubcrypt and stick to that. Signed-off-by: Leah Rowe <leah@libreboot.org>
2023-10-02grub.cfg: disable the pagerLeah Rowe
The pager causes trouble in some cases, where the user has to press enter at boot time depending on the configuration. Interactive use is one thing, but we should leave this disabled for smoother experience. If the user *wishes* to use the shell, they can always just enable the pager themselves by doing: set pager=1 Signed-off-by: Leah Rowe <leah@libreboot.org>

2023-09-25Update email address for Leah Rowe copyrightsLeah Rowe
also, some of them were out of date; years now updated. Signed-off-by: Leah Rowe <leah@libreboot.org>
2023-09-09set grub.cfg timeout to 5s (10 on some boards)Leah Rowe
target.cfg can now specify e.g. grub_timeout=20 this would then be inserted as timeout.cfg in cbfs, containing the instruction: set timeout=20 HP laptops need a bit of extra time, due to the delay caused by the EC bug workaround deployed in GRUB desktops in general need extra time. this too is set to 10s, like the HP laptops. only insert timeout.cfg if actually needed (declared in target.cfg), otherwise grub.cfg will default to 5s Signed-off-by: Leah Rowe <leah@libreboot.org>
2023-09-06grub: re-add module: playLeah Rowe
for example, the beep sound in debian's installer needs this module. the cute ding in the arch/artix menu also needs it Signed-off-by: Leah Rowe <leah@libreboot.org>
2023-09-04grub: remove xnu moduleLeah Rowe
this causes a saving of about 131KB uncompressed, when i tested. we don't need mach kernel support. nobody will ever use it. Signed-off-by: Leah Rowe <leah@libreboot.org>
2023-09-04grub: remove legacy file system modulesLeah Rowe
this causes a 6.7% decrease in the payload size these file systems are microsoft(fat, ntfs) or mostly oldschool amiga and beos file systems also remove minix modules, and some old linux file systems that nobody will use in 2023 Signed-off-by: Leah Rowe <leah@libreboot.org>
