Hello, I think Yoshinori K. Okuji will not accept the patch because Grub didn't accept new features. However, you may push your patch on [1] as it may be usefull for someone. There is also Grub 2, still in developpement which accepts new features. (I am not a dev of grub, I don't know the features needed by grub 2) [1] http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?group=grub The patch format is often the output of the "diff -Naur" command, all in one file, instead of sending a patch for each file. IMHO it is easier to apply. I remember someone wanted this feature, but I can't remember why. Can you give me a context where this feature is usefull? -- Alban _______________________________________________ Bug-grub mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-grub
