Package: grub-imageboot
Severity: wishlist

debian/control:
===============

grub-imageboot is able to boot harddisk images (currently .img files
larger than 4 MB are detected as harddisk images).  Please consider
mentioning this ability in the package's description.

| Description: boot iso and floppy images with grub2 and syslinux memdisk

Adding this to above quoted short description would make it rather long, but
maybe you have an idea how this could be done.  If you don't, just
adapting the long description should suffice, e.g.:

| This package installs a grub hook which integrates iso, harddisk and
| floppy images into the grub menu.

(I have no idea if "ISO image" is more commonly used than "iso image")


If you adapt the description anyway, please also add the trailing period
to it.  The final paragraph currently is:
| memdisk can't boot every image see
| http://syslinux.zytor.com/wiki/index.php/MEMDISK for its limitations

... but it should be:
| memdisk can't boot every image see
| http://syslinux.zytor.com/wiki/index.php/MEMDISK for its limitations.



debian/README.Debian:
=====================

The first two paragraphs of debian/README.Debian just mention floppy
and iso images, please also mention hard disk images there.

This file also points to /etc/default/grub-imageboot.conf, which has
been renamed to /etc/default/grub-imageboot.



etc/grub-imageboot:
===================

The following line does not mention harddisk images:
| # You can override the boot options for iso/floppy images here
