Hey Thierry, as there is still a week left this month, I figured you
might be a little bored. Anyway, if you are still looking for something
to do, it would be nice to have a function in grub to print out a block
list when given a partition. Which is to say, the starting block, the
length and the end.
For instance:
(grub) blocklist (hd0,3)
3906945+1953441
(grub)
This would permit us to remove the partitioning table detection code
from ext2fs.static for things such as boot floppies, etc.
Cheers.
