Subject: [PATCH] grub-install: remove useless check PReP partition is empty.
|
|
|
|
References: bsc#1065738
|
|
|
|
The grub-install rewrite in commit cd46aa6cefab checks that the PPeP
|
|
partition does not install an ELF binary before writing grub to it. This
|
|
causes regression in installer scripts that expect to be able to
|
|
reinstall bootloaders without first witping the partition by hand.
|
|
|
|
Fixes: cd46aa6cefab ("Rewrite grub-install, grub-mkrescue,
|
|
grub-mkstandalone and grub-mknetdir ")
