If you refer to my "GPT MBR", it was mostly a proof of concept. I didn't really have plans for it. I tend to think setting things up at install time is more suitable than doing a search every time (and 440 bytes don't give a lot of flexibility...). Also, HPA persuaded me that since he was going to work on standarising his handover protocol, and my "GPT MBR" experiment overlapped with it, I would obselete it to avoid conflict. _______________________________________________ Grub-devel mailing list Grub-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/grub-devel
