Anyway, if I ever have a chance to touch the GRUB ATA code again, I'll use FreeBSD as a reference. Using specification is probably not the best idea because we need GRUB to work on the real life hardware, and we need to be prepared to handle known quirks in popular hardware. -- Regards, Pavel Roskin _______________________________________________ Grub-devel mailing list Grub-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/grub-devel
