Hi,
I know this isn't on the 1.97 roadmap, but I was wondering about the
status of changing the grub.cfg format. I'm currently trying to plan
GRUB2 work for Solaris and I'd like to minimize as much code change as I
can.
We tend to change it very often. I can't garantee there won't be any minor
change before 1.97.
Ok, I'll keep that in mind. I do understand that GRUB is under rapid
development.
Is this an issue for you? Colin said he was concerned about core.img and
grub.cfg getting out of sync (see the other sub-thread). Does this problem
also affect you?
I saw that thread :) -- I don't think it's as much of a problem, because
we'll probably stabilize on a particular snapshot of GRUB2. For incompatible
updates to grub.cfg, I think we'll handle that when we update to a newer
snapshot. It may be a concern for users who try to update GRUB2 themselves
with the bleeding edge from the svn repo, but I think the community can handle
that on a case-by-case basis.
