I'm happy to announce the release of GRUB 1.94. This is the fifth of our prereleases leading up to GRUB 2.0. We encourage you to try it, as we have done a significant amount of work towards GRUB 2. Note that this release is mainly for developers who are willing to contribute to our project. If you need a working solution immediately, you'd better to stick to GRUB Legacy at the moment.
The source distribution is available from <ftp://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/grub/>. Send any questions, ideas, bug reports to <grub-devel@gnu.org>. Here is the relevant NEWS: New in 1.94 - 2006-06-04: * Fix several serious bugs in HFS+. * Add experimental EFI support. Chainloading and Linux loading are supported at the moment. * Add a new command "blocklist" to show a block list. * Use --with-platform to specify a boot environment. For now, efi, ieee1275 and pc are supported. * Use the filename "kernel.elf" instead of "grubof" on ieee1275. * Install GRUB into pkglibdir instead of pkgdatadir. * Support environmental variables. You can export variables by the command "export". * Remove the commands "default" and "timeout". They are now variables. * Add the commands "source" and "." to include a file. * Implement experimental Video API and a new terminal "gfxterm" based on the Video API.
