I am trying to set up a subnet to net boot computers of different designs. Some use EFI, some are powerpc, some are old PCs. grub-efi-amd64-bin, grub-efi- ia32-bin, and grub-pc-bin all install nicely. grub-ieee1275-bin insists on only i386 which would be interesting if I had any machines to use it, but I would prefer powerpc. grub-efi-arm-bin, grub-efi-arm64-bin, grub-uboot-bin, and grub-yeeloong-bin would also be useful.

Thanks Bastian for copying me to this e-mail. Currently the molotov package cannot be built on arm64 architectures even though it's a shell script, more details can be found in the link below: https://github.com/cizordj/molotov#known-limitations To circumvent this issue I'm shipping this package as 64-bit only and not providing support for arm64 machines.
