Hi, It has some usage, actually both OpenFirmware and EFI have write driver, it can be used to edit boot config files. And we don't need to support all fs, for example, write support for fat is quite useful while don't require much effort to implement. >> Of course, the startup fs modules are still read-only, but after >> entering normal mode, users can switch to the fuse driver for more >> functionality. > > The level of functionality provided by the existing filesystem modules > would be quite sufficient. Oh I see, you mean the other way around, using the grub fs code to implement a FUSE driver. But I don't see why not just modify os-prober to work with grub-fstest, this is much simpler than writing a FUSE wrapper. -- Bean gitgrub home: http://github.com/grub/grub/ my fork page: http://github.com/bean123/grub/ _______________________________________________ Grub-devel mailing list Grub-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/grub-devel
