I'm afraid the savings are going to be tiny (if any) on the hard drive side, whereas the code duplication will be significant. The floppy module won't have CD-ROM support, and that's it. -- Regards, Pavel Roskin _______________________________________________ Grub-devel mailing list Grub-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/grub-devel
