Re: pvhgrub docs

[C Stainer <chr.stainer@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Chris,

FWIW I found a combination of the Xen PVH wiki [1] and [2] useful when
evaluating PVH mode for a use case.

On a Debian host (from at least Buster) pvhgrub's install location is
/usr/lib/grub-xen/grub-i386-xen_pvh.bin (grub-xen-host) and
/usr/lib/grub/* (grub-xen-bin).

[1] https://wiki.xenproject.org/wiki/Linux_PVH
[2] https://tools.bitfolk.com/wiki/PVH

HTH?
