Because otherwise where these names should come from and how users will know them? SMBIOS at the end is defined in terms of structure offsets. I suppose that any user of this command will know them. Either we will limit ourselves to known names documented in grub manual, but even then documentation will have to say "foo.bar refers to table bar at offset XX". Not sure how is it better. _______________________________________________ Grub-devel mailing list Grub-devel@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/grub-devel
