\fBload_size=\fR is a value which depends on the boot image.
Default 2048 should be overridden only if a better value is known.
.br
\fBboot_info_table=on\fR may be used to apply patching to a boot image which
is given by "any" "bin_path=". "boot_info_table=off" disables patching.
\fBboot_info_table=on\fR causes address patching to bytes 8 to 63
of the boot image which is given by "any" "bin_path=".
"boot_info_table=off" disables this patching.
.br
\fBgrub2_boot_info=on\fR causes address patching to byte 2548
of the boot image which is given by "any" "bin_path=".
The address is written as 64 bit little\-endian number. It is the
2KB block address of the boot image content, multiplied by 4,
and then incremented by 5.
"grub2_boot_info=off" disables this patching.
.br
\fBplatform_id=\fR defines by two hex digits the Platform ID of the
boot image. "00" is 80x86 PC\-BIOS, "01" is PowerPC, "02" is Mac, "ef" is EFI.

\fBgrub2_mbr=\fRdisk_path works like "any" system_area= with additional
patching for modern GRUB MBRs. The content start address of the first boot
image is converted to a count of 512 byte blocks, and an offset of 4 is added.
The result is written as 64 bit little\-endian number to byte address 0x1b0.

\fBpartition_table=on\fR causes a simple partition table to be written
into bytes 446 to 511 of the System Area.

.br
\fBgrub2_sparc_core=\fRiso_rr_path causes the content address and size
of the given file to be written after the SUN Disk Label. Both numbers are
counted in bytes. The address is written as 64 bit big\-endian number to
byte 0x228. The size is written as 32 bit big\-endian number to byte 0x230.

\fBmips_discard\fR and \fBsparc_discard\fR revoke any boot file
declarations made by mips_path= or mipsel_path=. They also disable production
of SUN Disk Label.
