--- Begin Message ---Package: grml-rescueboot Version: 0.4.5 Severity: wishlist Tags: patch -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA256 Hello, The Grml-invented loopback.cfg has become a de facto standard, used in a number of other Linux distributions on their ISOs. This is great, though I wanted a way to easily take a directory of compatible ISOs and build grub2 stanzas. I've got an open ITP (#693774) for a package named grub-loopback-iso, but recently found that the grml-rescueboot package is perfectly capable of booting non-Grml loopback.cfg-compatible ISOs, though you wouldn't know that from the package. I'd like to propose genericizing the package, renaming it to and merging it with my generic grub-loopback-iso, while providing a transtional grml-rescueboot package. The grub.d hook itself will continue to provide backwards compatibility with existing grml-rescueboot configurations (/boot/grml and /etc/default/grml-rescueboot). A proposed merge against: http://git.grml.org/?p=grml-rescueboot.git is at: https://github.com/rfinnie/grub-loopback-iso A more thorough explanation of the changes is in the commit message. (Full disclosure: I am the author of Finnix, technically a competitor to Grml, so genericizing this package is in my/Finnix's best interests.) - -- System Information: Debian Release: jessie/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.13.0-24-generic (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages grml-rescueboot depends on: ii grub-pc 2.02~beta2-10 grml-rescueboot recommends no packages. grml-rescueboot suggests no packages. - -- no debconf information -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1 iQIcBAEBCAAGBQJTivxoAAoJEH5go6aGro2YmEQP/iwYMW7NaUHcq0fRgHxmMOkk yQpgcSi19PBGs3i4TzCmvowKslueu2RWSd8cqEt+mxlrGBWKN0zFJ26u11pP0LgK DnoPkDJeLLmqLhCkB5c977B6PRjSWOlKBG4/4Ap5vUn+7wVfi8lGErFA6Yk88IRe 8h+lOZFkgC+7onhRO1EZTBsA8kYy8lH0MnicACMa6n+5HBofh8aO2VHxEvcc2K8K agJIucwbZIc7UokzMkw3k9TAVS7Rj+XFJ2SXhWGuaH3+JLmbOiuKchcJUiFs6m4J G0RJNrdhxdSCqc2O1HOfYvMMa7WYpfUervzpASbQmxu5lQxHw8JHwDT4GPahYiav dDsOzVacQ7Mjp+EpFqvJrSu89hLnHfEaFNclpbi+vjY4ABE9PfUL4yKA0BVx6Xfm eGt2aPY9bwMMD0rihc7A2Pve0kL61dDKfWhkkpUdQrUKsy29F+1S2O7hvt6bKRk0 FuledamzH2VUyHwm6IxzuH1lICJxS49nvldviQ5NBK1Vbq622uZgK/xNrK3NFkn5 BjYNLz4gH4/H+La2PKaTHx+H42bqzFrGJZtZgXXTY/g6NyHJ77HZ1Q2tucGpn4uT kvfjFe6Nn2cQR2g7AM2wH1olyqgx1Asox1CQnAJy4V6ql/+DPK8rRC2ryC1Y1Loc +e3z0dDZrqyWHn0bSNA8 =oTs/ -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

For a long time nothing happened, and in the meantime I closed a similar request in the upstream repo. For generic image support, grub-imageboot is a thing. It also could use some love. I'm closing this bug report here too, as a non-grml-rescueboot wouldn't be much of a grml-rescueboot anymore. Chris
