Subject: [PATCH] installer: more closely match grub-install
Date: Wed, 12 Jan 2022 21:31:09 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220112213109.23745-1-hi@alyssa.is> (raw)

The main motivation here is that I noticed we're installing a lot
of *.module files that grub-install didn't include.

After this change, we're still differing from what grub-install does
in the following ways:

 • Locale files are still not included

 • grub/x86_64-efi/core.efi or grub/x86_64-efi/grub.efi are not
   included.  I'm not sure where those executables come from, but they
   don't seem to be required.

 • We're still not creating a grubenv file, which should be fine
   because there's no data that might need to be persisted anyway.
