Hello there,
I read the TODO list and found these lines:
=======
* Add CDROM-chainloading support. It would be enough to support only
BIOSes which have bootable-CDROM support (so you may use the "Bootable
CDROM" BIOS calls). It is not trivial to support BIOSes without the
capability to boot CDROM.
======
Maybe you could refer SmartBootManager programmed by James Su
<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> and port the CDROM boot part into GRUB. It's first
GPLed boot manager providing CDROM boot support. I love SmartBootManager
very much, and James and I tested a lot of boot loaders/managers and
found SBM/GRUB/LILO were wonderful. I went through the documentation
with GRUB and found GRUB great. SBM has some other great features and
I'm sure that it could help GRUB if you really read the assembly code
lines in SBM.
SBM could be downloaded following with this URL:
http://btmgr.gnuchina.org or http://www.gnuchina.org/~suzhe
Also could be downloaded via searching within freshmeat.net.
I do really want GRUB add the CDROM-chainloading support. :)
Best reguards
