I just stalk this mailing list, but I think it'd be great to turn the

work in platform specifics? Just expose the OF interface, or clone
the
device tree? What about non-OF systems?
Have you read the wiki page? http://grub.enbug.org/MultibootDraft
I don't intend to put any Open Firmware information into the multiboot
structure, since OF will still be live when the OS is executed.
Ah okay, so just store the OF entry pointer or EFI system table with
key-value. Okay. That makes sense.
Slightly OT, but has any work been done to make Multiboot ia32/x64
EFI-friendly?
Should be the same situation I guess.
