grub on UEFI includes the unicode font in the signed image and does not
load external fonts anymore, so this would only affect BIOS boot.

Title:
netboot tarball missing grub/fonts/unicode.pf2?
Status in livecd-rootfs package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
I'm in the process of updating
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UEFI/SecureBoot/PXE-IPv6 and one of the files
mentioned there that is useful to publish to your netboot root
directory is /usr/share/grub/unicode.pf2 to provide an experience
matching that you get when booting from a local device.
Maybe we should include this font file in the netboot tarball we now
provide? (and include a grub.cfg that loads it?)
I checked and it doesn't appear to be part of the signed grub efi
image.
