Hello, currently vbe module contains all the framebuffer functions which are
actually adapter-independent and I think more adapters can be implementing
by providing a function which sets mode and framebuffer. Additionally it
provides an interface to retrieve framebuffer address for loaders: check

Hi,
My goal is to make my old laptop boot a live Linux dist from the CF card
inserted into an adapter in the PCMCIA port. After booting a GRUB2
image, the laptop's hard disk drive can be put to sleep and I'll have a
silent netbook.
I'm experimenting with this rather simple problem, but on a som
Hi,
This patch add a new tool grub-symdb to manage symbol database and
update module dependence as required. The build process is greatly
simplified, moddep.lst, def-*.lst, und-*.lst are not generated
anymore. grub-symdb will read the module files and update modsym.lst
and moddep.lst automatically
Ok, grub2 devs, I can't figure this out. The splash screen that covers
the scrolling text when booting up, no longer works! I've tried several
different things, but have not run across a solution yet. What's the
trick? Another user mentioned I should use linux16 rather than linux,
but that
also kernel will fail if it can't access/write to loopback (hfs+ comes
to mind, or kernel which does not support ntfs)

Or maybe this makes it more clear: With wubi (which uses grub4dos) for
example this only works, because the ubuntu installer and lateron the
installed system provide additional software that enables the system
to do so. (lupin/caspar) This only works if specifically supported by

Usefulness of this is limited to situation where payload uses bios calls
which are quite few (dos and dos based tools, some booters). You can't boot
a modern OS this way: it will fail the millisecond OS switches to its own
drivers. Additionally to do such thing you need to leave kernel in memory.

My bad. Part of the patch was missing. Here is a corrected version with
sanity checks for 2TB limit and some CHS fixes

Hi,
Compiled with rev 2121, --with-platform=efi but got no gptsync module. It
could be a useful tool for macs, I would like to try it.
