I am orphaning this package. I recommend everyone to switch over to grub2-efi-bzr .

@badhat: Changed the burg.cfg path to /boot/efi/boot/burg/burg.cfg . Should be fixed now.

Also I am not too interested in maintaining this package as I do not use it. If anyone is interested I will disown this package.

I can install the binary, but when I try to install burg to the boot partition it fails. I have UEFI on and I used gdisk to make a 400MiB vfat partition to install to. Currently, in a chroot environment I'm trying to install this package.

After I run "burg-install" as the package asks (with --boot-directory=/boot) I'm told that the device map "boot/efi/boot/burg/device.map" has
(hd0) /dev/sda
(hd1) /dev/sdb --> this is my bootable USB

However, when I try to run "update-burg" to generate a config file I get this:

/sbin/burg-mkconfig: line 275: /boot/efi/efi/burg/burg.cfg.new : No such file or directory

I KNOW this does not exist. There is a file "/boot/efi/boot/burg/burg.cfg.new" though -- did I screw something up?

@fsckd: The provides are for burg bios package, not for uefi packages.

NOTE: This package is "WORK IN PROGRESS". Please test it.

I am yet to figure out the actual steps on installing BURG to UEFI SYSTEM PARTITION. GRUB2 UEFI instructions in Archwiki will not work for burg since burg uefi is far behind grub2 uefi codebase.

I will be maintaining this package temporarily till it starts working properly.
