Package: debian-installer
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
Next upstream release of GRUB (1.97~beta5) will have its kFreeBSD loader
renamed (from "freebsd" to "kfreebsd") to reflect that it is loading the
kernel of FreeBSD rather than FreeBSD itself. Since GRUB 1.96 didn't
include a kFreeBSD loader at all, there's no backward compatibility in
this change.
Attached patch modifies build/boot/kfreebsd/grub-kfreebsd-*.cfg to use
the new interface. Please let us know when it is appropiate for us to
upload the new version. We can coordinate through IRC or whichever way
you prefer.
