Hello list,
After "complaining" on the centos-arm list about a Fedora specific patch in the el7 uboot-images they encouraged me to try to merge a fix upstream.
Well here we are ;)
It's about the specific location off the grub2 uefi boot stub @ efi/fedora/ for Fedrora vs efi/centos/ for centos. I wonder if a merge proposed in the compare link below is acceptable / discussable?

happy to hear from you

No, because I'm working to get a proper fix merged upstream so it's shouldn't be needed at all that way if vendors ship a new up to date U-Boot on something like a SPI flash it should just work without any distro specific hacks at all.
Also generally the place to discuss this would be to have a PR against the package and it could be discussed there for posterity.

Good to hear, hope it will happen soon!! And at least I tried, looks like i will have to compile my own until then.

Good to know, every community has it's own habits. ;)
Thanks for the swift reply, Mark
