post-binutils 2.41, post-grub 2.12, x86_64 media cannot boot
Using either of these media:
- http://foxkit.us/linux/adelie-live-kde-x86_64-1.0-beta5-foxexp.iso (2023-10-11)
- https://temp.adelielinux.org/adelie-live-kde-x86_64-1.0-beta5-20231012.iso (built with latest tree as of packages@c1026184 with all packages synced to distfiles except for pmmx and armv7 as of writing)
the VM fails to boot in VirtualBox, on metal, and in other hypervisors:
17:34 < dimitsos> awilfox: There seems to be something wrong with foxexp x86_64 iso: I tried a laptop with amd cpu and graphics and one with intel cpu and nvidia graphics. In the first case, instead of grub menu I got stuck with a fuzzy screen. In the second case, I think it tried to show the grub menu, then it instantly rebooted.
...
18:07 < dimitsos> awilfox: 3rd attempt: Intel atom netbook, it gets stuck at "GRUB loading..."
...
00:48 <~awilfox> dimitsos: interesting. another tester reported failure with GRUB on iMac with UEFI
00:48 <~awilfox> that's not good
00:48 <~awilfox> these are the first media with the grub 2.12~rc1 update
00:49 <~awilfox> it does seem to work reliably on ppc/ppc64 and aarch64, which is progress because 2.04 didn't work on aarch64 at all and was shaky on ppc
00:49 <~awilfox> I guess now I need to debug it on x86_64
A log from VirtualBox (excluding parts in common with the successfully-booting 20230829
media):
