This was no mistake. So here is the thinking here (I figured this would come up). The multiboot heads outside of the grub directory are not grub specific. This gives other operating systems or programs (in this case GPL 3 compatible operating systems) the ability to include these headers and use t

[RFC] color command

2007-07-25 Thread Robert Millan
Hi, I'd like to discuss the possibility of providing functionality equivalent to the "color" command in GRUB Legacy. One of the downsides of how color worked in GRUB Legacy is that internally colors were handled by GRUB directly as VGA codes. Since this isn't portable, I suggest that we avoid i

Just pulled fresh CVS and things do work. What needs to happen is that need to check in new .mk files. I'll generate new .mk files form the new .rmk files and all will be well. Normally when building grub I do: ./autogen <-- to generate the .mk files ./configure make So put in the new .mk files

Yes multiboot 1 for i386-pc is very much still supported and functional (one thing I made sure wouldn't break with all this new stuff). I went through and changed a lot of the function declarations to match up with GCS...many where not. Hopefully this will really kickstart things in the Multiboot
