Re: What GPL requirements are implied by publishing an ISO. Re: Grub-devel Digest, Vol 163, Issue 9

Hi :) This might not be the best place to ask about legal issues for edge-case scenarios. People here can try to help from their own experiences but we are not "the horse's mouth" in regards to the licence and legal issues. Perhaps this; https://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-faq.html#SourceAndBinaryO

[Solved] thx :)) Re: Rewrite of OS-prober module?

Hi :) Thanks :) Some good advice and good points there! :) Interesting to hear that os-prober is not directly part of grub. Sounds like my buddy is on the right track so maybe best if i just ask him how it is going in a few days. Many thanks and regards from Tom :) __

Rewrite of OS-prober module?

Hi :) I have a fairly shy friend who has done a re-write of the os-prober module for his own needs after doing a lot of study about EFI systems. He is already moving on to other things but i think it's a shame he seems to think he can't submit the whole thing without; 1. breaking it down into com

Gamepad support, recognition and use as alternative to keyboard

Hi :) Gamepad support for systems with neither mouse nor keyboard. Should this be posted as a "feature request" / "wish-list" item using the bug-report system? Should we just put a tag in square brackets in the subject-line, such as [feature-request]? The users-support mailing list recently rece

Re: [RFC] Support for UEFI ESP in os-prober

Hi :) From a users pov.  The thing i like about the current system is that it now successfully picks-up the various "Recovery" partitions created by OEMs or by Windows 7 (probably others too) Ideally i would like the main Windows partitions near the top of the menu and those "Recovery" ones

Re: [2.00] grub-install use on UEFI system?

Hi :) I think the problem is that there are so few people in the documentation team.  Is there anyone in it?  Andrey, it might be best to find how to do the changes directly and do the other changes that other people have reported at the same time.  I suspect that if you work on the documenta

Recovery Partitions

Hi :) Could grub2 give a menu item for Recovery Partitions? It finds Windows on sda2 on Ntfs but not the Windows Recovery Partition on sda1 on Fat16? Could i edit the menu "on the fly" as i might have done with grub legacy or would the prober thing need editing? Apols for the broken way Yahoo

jpeg image does not show in background

Hi :) From experiences with my company's website i would say convert the image from jpg to png asap while you have it as good as it will ever get. For the website i then try to clean the image up a bit if possible (given time limitations & likely size of useful final image). After that any cr

jpeg image does not show in background

jpg compression does some horrible things to pictures especially if you try to resize after cropping or doing anythign to them really. Why not stay with png? Regards from Tom :) ___ Grub-devel mailing list Grub-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.or

Re: 3. Re: LiveCD bootloader

Hi :) I think if this is going to be a lot of work or would significantly increase complexity or even worse increase boot-time then the idea should be dropped/shelved/ignored. If it was a simple copy&paste & quick edit then it might be worth pursuing but it looks like the link i was given does

3. Re: LiveCD bootloader

Hi :) I was trying to find a way of doing this http://mgerards.net/blog/?p=16 type of booting from an iso but thought it might only be possible using a really convoluted route. Thanks for this link, it looks as though it solves all my questions about this :) Thanks and regards from Tom :)

Re: LiveCD bootloader

Hi :) Are we talking about a bootloader that can be used inside a customised Cd? Could grub2 be installed to hard-drive and dynamically include a menu item for LiveCd if it found an Ubuntu or other distros CD in the cd/dvd-drive? I am not sure the complexity would be worth it? If it could be

Re: Grub-devel Digest, Vol 79, Issue 1

Booting an iso image Can grub2 be installed on a partition (perhaps on a usb-stick) and boot up to a boot-menu with options to boot into any iso files it finds in a particular folder? Could grub2 boot up a set iso file that is always in a same place? Regards from Tom :) _

Re: Grub-devel Digest, Vol 78, Issue 17

My Thoughts Life is not perfect and things don't arrive perfectly formed. Grub2 has only recently got out into the wild and finds itself in some pretty strange places. I think the devs that have worked on Grub2 need to congratulate themselves and deserve copngrats from the entire linux commun
