[Bug 1301524] Re: Missing EFI Stub Loader support in 3.13.0-21?

 

3.13.0-22 boots fine with stubloader. So the main interest in wanting to
understand why 3.13.0.21 didn't, is to stop it happening again,
otherwise it's history...

Title:
  Missing EFI Stub Loader support in 3.13.0-21?

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I think that might be the problem: Installed on a Mac (Macbook Air
  4,1) using rEFInd boot manager, 3.13.0-19 and 3.13.0-20 as well as
  3.14 (mainline, installed to test something else) all happily booted
  directly using the stubloader. But 3.13.0-21 just hangs instantly on
  load.

  Googling around found an older Arch thread where apparently something
  similar happened to a 3.7 kernel build and that was what it turned out
  to be: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=156670&p=1

  so guessing it might just be a build or build-script error?

  Kernel boots fine via grub (though this takes longer).
