Hello, everyone :-)
Grub legacy has a very nice feature called fallback(savedefault) that allows
one to
tell grub to modify the next boot entry number everytime it boots.
This is obviously very useful (in combination with some other kernel/init
measures)
when doing a remote kernel update, since y

Hi,
I am new to firmware world. I am trying to load Linux using Grub2 on EFI. I
am trying this on my desktop with intel dual core processor (It's not a Mac

boot with grub, it is failing to find the device name and unable to se

Hello!
This is going to be a real headache.
All of his original packet drivers were released under the GPL; the zip

Two issues found in current CVS:
1. Booting a grub2-mkrescue floppy crashes if
"(memdisk)/boot/grub/grub.cfg" does not exist. This is because
grub_cpio_open does not set grub_errno if a file does not exist.

Robert the whole message was seen in UTF-8, not just the signature. So what
