number from ELF as segment number in the file. This works nicely when
there are no skips (e.g. not PT_LOAD segments, which are discarded).
If one segment is skipped, we get a bump:
normal/payload0/segment0 (27288 bytes, lzma compressed to 14506 bytes @0x64c0)
normal/payload0/segment2 (211136 bytes, lzma compressed to 70905 bytes @0x9dc0)
The LAR loader wont load segment2, and in this particular case, grub2-lb
will only boot into rescue mode (segment0 contains it).
Attached patch adds a counter for segment number in the LAR utility to
solve this bug:
normal/payload0/segment0 (27288 bytes, lzma compressed to 14506 bytes @0x64c0)
normal/payload0/segment1 (211136 bytes, lzma compressed to 70905 bytes @0x9dc0)
Also the eagle eyed can see that I merged in Uwe's multiple-payload
patch into current stage1, which includes the segment support. And this
means that grub2-lb without any hacks works when loaded from LAR segments.
