Right now isoimage-isohybrid creates a single boot menu entry "boot"
and passes it the arguments supplied with "--append". There is logic
for creating custom grub menus, but it is sadly not used. "boot" is
hardcoded.

This change makes isoimage use the wic bootloader "--menu" argument to
create its menus. The syntax used for menu specification was chosen so
it does not conflict with the kernel parameter syntax (you can pass
custom kernel arguments from the generated grub menu entries, like for
example silent booting, thread affinity etc.).

The "--menu" argument syntax is as following. The argument supplies a
collection of menu entry names and kernel parameters. Menu name entries
can contain any ASCII character except | or : which are separators.
Kernel parameters obey the syntax defined by the kernel documentation.
| is the menu separator and : is the separator between the menu names
and parameters.

Example for use in wks files:
  --menu "Menu Name:firstarg,secondard|Menu Name 2:anotherarg,otherarg"

Hi Ioan-Adrian,

Did you test if this patch works on master?
From the first look I'd say it will not work as --menu bootloader
option is not implemented there.

Hi Ioan-Adrian,

It's my fault as I've rewritten ks parser and missed --menu implementation.
Let me know if you need my help with this.

It would be great if you also add test case for this feature to wic oe-selftest suite.

Regards,
Ed

Hello Ed,

I've tested it on Jethro. Sorry about this. I'll look at the changes in wic's kickstart and redo/resubmit.

Thank you,

Yes, it's correct. Frankly I didn't think about this, but if it works
for you it's great!

Hello Ed,

I've looked a little at the wic rewrites in master and they're really really awesome!

Just to verify if I understood correctly: Now if I want custom menus in grub I
can specify them directly in a custom .cfg supplied in the wks by the "configfile"
bootloader option, so there's no need anymore for that "--menu" option + all the
ugly string parsing code from my previous patch.

Is this correct?

Thank you,
Ioan
