Package: grub
Version: 0.97-7.1+kbsd
Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch
Hi!
With this patch, when grub is not installed in the system (/boot/grub is not
present), a debconf question will be asked to wether user wants to install it
automaticaly or not.
It done in a very harmless and non-intrusive way:
- Question is only asked when /boot/grub does not exist.
- Defaults to "no".
This feature will be very useful in two situations:
- Users who installed debian before sarge, and got LILO setup by default.
- Debian systems not using d-i, like GNU/kFreeBSD or GNU/Hurd, which can't
benefit from grub-installer udeb, may use this feature as a replacement.
