Yes that's one use of it. 2 days ago on IRC, someone was asking how they could load GRUB from GRUB, as they needed to use a modified version. > I am interested in knowing what have you done this patch for.

The original goal is to support loading GRUB from any Linux or multiboot bootloader, so that a OS installation script could install GRUB 2 before rebooting the computer for main part of the installer. However it needs code to enable A20 before that can work. -- Member AFFS, WYLUG, SWP (UK), UAF, RESPECT, StWC No to software patents! Victory to the iraqi resistance!
