Right now the multiboot2 spec calls for bits to be set in the kernel image to indicate to GRUB that various features are required or requested.
I'm trying to come up with a cleaner way. I find all these bits very confusing, actually, and I think it would be more clear if we had something like this instead: [... multiboot header ...] .ascii "header_addr: 0xf00" .ascii "load_addr: 0x0" .ascii ... (Actually, is it even worth supporting a.out at this point? This particular example may be obsolete.) Video mode information: .ascii "vga_mode: text" .ascii "columns: 80" .ascii "rows: 24" Thoughts? -Hollis _______________________________________________ Grub-devel mailing list Grub-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/grub-devel
