[ipxe-devel] [PATCH] improve checking multiboot images

[Sergey Voronezhskiy]

Hello,

To fix the problem which was described in:
http://lists.ipxe.org/pipermail/ipxe-devel/2011-June/000742.html
http://lists.ipxe.org/pipermail/ipxe-devel/2012-January/001132.html

Improve checking multiboot images by using part of code from mbchk.c (GRUB)

Testing was done by using grub2 multiboot image (./grub-mkimage ...),
and 'pxegrub' from Nexenta 4.x-beta, which incorrectly was detected by iPXE
as Multiboot image.

Attach with patch included.

Best regards,
