-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2011-16975 2011-12-11 21:22:08 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name : grub2 Product : Fedora 16 Version : 1.99 Release : 13.fc16 URL : http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/ Summary : Bootloader with support for Linux, Multiboot and more Description : The GRand Unified Bootloader (GRUB) is a highly configurable and customizable bootloader with modular architecture. It support rich varietyof kernel formats, file systems, computer architectures and hardware devices. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: This update fixes several bugs. It fixes a hardcoded call to 'grub-probe' - which does not exist in Fedora - in the /etc/grub.d/30_os-prober script, which broke grub's auto-detection of OS X installs. It updates various documentation for the slightly different names used for some files in Fedora. It fixes an error in the spec file which meant the package was not being build with Fedora's standard compiler flags. It changes the default contents of the /etc/default/grub file to be more similar to the file as written by the Fedora installer. Many of these changes were contributed by Mads Kiilerich. For testers: as this is a sensitive component, please try and test it thoroughly. Testing that it works as expected with new kernel installs, during installation (by enabling the updates-testing repository during a network installation), when running grub2-mkconfig and grub2-install, and after doing a yum upgrade from Fedora 15 will be valuable. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChangeLog: * Thu Dec 8 2011 Adam Williamson <[email protected]> - 1.99-13 - fix hardwired call to grub-probe in 30_os-prober (rhbz#737203) * Mon Nov 7 2011 Peter Jones <[email protected]> - 1.99-12 - Lots of .spec fixes from Mads Kiilerich: Remove comment about update-grub - it isn't run in any scriptlets patch info pages so they can be installed and removed correctly when renamed fix references to grub/grub2 renames in info pages (#743964) update README.Fedora (#734090) fix comments for the hack for upgrading from grub2 < 1.99-4 fix sed syntax error preventing use of $RPM_OPT_FLAGS (#704820) make /etc/grub2*.cfg %config(noreplace) make grub.cfg %ghost - an empty file is of no use anyway create /etc/default/grub more like anaconda would create it (#678453) don't create rescue entries by default - grubby will not maintain them anyway set GRUB_SAVEDEFAULT=true so saved defaults works (rbhz#732058) grub2-efi should have its own bash completion don't set gfxpayload in efi mode - backport upstream r3402 - Handle dmraid better.
