Chain-starting acrn

Ross Burton <ross.burton@...>
 

Hi,

Should it be possible to start acrn from inside systemd-boot, that is
by writing another loader entry for systemd-boot which basically says:

title acrn
efi /EFI/BOOT/acrn.efi
options bootloader=/EFI/BOOT/bootx86.efi

Where bootx86.efi is systemd-boot, and I have another loader that starts linux.

So the workflow would be systemd-boot -> acrn.efi -> systemd-boot -> linux.

Thanks,
Ross

I don't believe it is possible but I have never tried and need the engineering team to give us a definite answer.
