Any intentions to integrate the "new etherboot drivers" patch?

What is your opinion? Honestly speaking, I > don't care about version numbers very much. If I get no significant I agree it does not matter *that* much. Netbooters will have to compile their grub anyway, as many distros do not have --enable-diskless in their binaries, and it's not that much work to also apply the patch. But things are slowly changing - e.g. RedHat's new "stateless linux" project might make netbooting more common, and I personally think grub is the best bootloader for netbooting right now (together with PXE or Etherboot in the client). > response, I will release 0.96 in a few days. I must say I do not follow closely, and do not know of significant changes/fixes since 0.95, so I can't comment on that. -- Didi _______________________________________________ Bug-grub mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-grub
