Hi,

Since it seems that few people like my ideas, I have not apply for them as
SoC projects.

If you think they are helpful. I will still try working on them.

Regards,

Wei

Hi,
I have two ideas and wonder whether they are welcome as SoC projects.

1) Simple file editing

I think it is useful to add file edit function to Grub. Thus, if an OS
config file which is required to boot the OS successfully is mistakenly
written, we can still correct it in Grub and need not to reboot from the
floppy or cdrom just for the correcting.
I know it would greately increase the complexity of Grub to support a
writable file system. However, if file writing does not change the
block counts of a file, things are much simpler. Since most config files are
small (occupying only one block), I think the solution will work.

2) *addr* option for module command

Add nn option: "*addr* = *value*" to the module command. If the *addr*option is 
specified, Grub will load the module to address
*value* instead of the default address.
