Description Marek Goldmann 2011-10-17 16:15:39 UTC 
Created attachment 528583 [details]
Patch for allowing custom path when searching for kernels

Description of problem:

Currently when grub.cfg is being created - the script looks for initramfs and kernel images in hardcoded path which makes it unusable when we mount the filesystem somewhere else (for example loopback).

Please note, that the attached patch is read to apply after applying patch specified in bug 746394.

I've built RPMs with patch applied so you can test it: http://goldmann.fedorapeople.org/bz/746730/
Comment 2 Marek Goldmann 2011-11-08 16:13:38 UTC 
Closing, as we can use chroot to workaround this.
