Most users don't have problems with FreeBSD not working on their hardware. Getting five menu entries for different options is too much. It may be OK for a FreeBSD installer, but not for the generic script that also detects other OSes. A reasonable middle ground would be to have one entry called "safe mode" to would lead to a menu offering single mode, disabling ACPI, disabling whatever else is potentially problematic. I think all entries under "safe mode" can enable extra verbosity. The implementation could remove the original menu, or it could insert entries immediately below "safe mode". I don't know if it's possible, but it could be useful. Actually, I don't want osdetect.lua to be overengineered and overloaded with intimate knowledge of different OSes. It's an example for others to extend, not a complete solution. -- Regards, Pavel Roskin _______________________________________________ Grub-devel mailing list Grub-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/grub-devel
