Hi,

In the following mail there will be a patch that adds grub-coreboot.

The './pre-inst-env guix lint grub-coreboot' command shows some warnings:
    [...]/bootloaders.scm:301:2: grub-coreboot@2.06:
    label 'qemu' does not match package name 'qemu-minimal'
    [...]/bootloaders.scm:301:2: grub-coreboot@2.06:
    label 'gettext' does not match package name 'gettext-minimal'
    [...]/bootloaders.scm:301:2: grub-coreboot@2.06:
    file names of patches should start with the package name
    [...]/bootloaders.scm:301:2: grub-coreboot@2.06:
    probably vulnerable to CVE-2022-2601, CVE-2022-3775, CVE-2021-3981
    [...]/bootloaders.scm:301:2: grub-coreboot@2.06:
    updater 'gnu' failed to find upstream releases
but since this package is based on grub-coreboot, I guess that things should
be fixed there instead.

A standalone image was built with the following commands:

    modules="ahci at_keyboard cbfs ehci ext2 fat ohci part_gpt part_msdos \
             pata uhci usb_keyboard usbms usbserial_usbdebug"

    "/gnu/store/[...]/bin/grub-mkstandalone" \
	-O i386-coreboot \
	-o grub_payload.elf \
	--fonts= \
	--themes= \
	--locales= \
	--modules="${modules}" \
	--install-modules="${install_modules}" \
	/boot/grub/grub.cfg=coreboot.cfg

The coreboot.cfg file was taken from grub source code (GPLv3+) and consist of
the following:
    
    if test -f (cbfsdisk)/etc/grub.cfg; then
       source (cbfsdisk)/etc/grub.cfg
    fi

The resulting image was tested on a Thinkpad X200 running a custom 100% free
software version of Coreboot with as a GRUB payload) with the following
commands:
  
    chainloader /path/to/grub_payload.elf
    boot

It then booted fine. As for the partitions I used, I have LUKS encrypted hard
drive with LVM2 and a mix of BTRFS and ext4 partitions.
