[Bug 2091706] [NEW] Noble lacks /usr/lib/grub/riscv64-efi/monolithic/grubriscv64.efi

[Heinrich Schuchardt]

Public bug reported:

[ Impact ]

Building preinstalled images with ubuntu-image is much easier if a
monolithic GRUB image exits.

Currently we have riscv64 monolithic images in Oracular and in Plucky,
but not in Noble.

Please, add the missing files.

[ Test Plan ]

* Download the GRUB packages with
  'pull-lp-debs --a riscv64 -m https://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/ grub2 noble'
* Extract them with 'find . -name '*.deb' -exec dpkg -x {} . \;'.
* Check that usr/lib/grub/riscv64-efi/monolithic/grubriscv64.efi exists.
* Copy the file to a riscv64 system
* Boot the system to the U-Boot console
* Load the file (e.g with 'load nvme 0:2 $kernel_addr_r /home/ubuntu/grubriscv64.efi')
* Execute it using the bootefi command (e.g. 'bootefi $kernel_addr_r')
* In the GRUB rescue console execute the command lsefisystab

A typical output of the command looks like:

grub> lsefisystab

Only new files are supplied.
If the packing update were done incorrectly, files existing in prior releases might be missing.
