One of the purposes of grub-mkrescue is to generate images that are bootable using GRUB. These images might be complete CDs or DVDs, making a complete copy very undesireable. I think I'd rather remove the copiing stage altogether and operate on the original directory (this is not so strange, e.g. -boot-info-table in mkisofs also modifies original data and is widely used). -- Robert Millan The DRM opt-in fallacy: "Your data belongs to us. We will decide when (and how) you may access your data; but nobody's threatening your freedom: we still allow you to remove your data and not access it at all." _______________________________________________ Grub-devel mailing list Grub-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/grub-devel
