Here is support for partitioned software RAID devices for
util/i386/pc/biosdisk.c.
You can now try grub-setup/grub-install on a partitioned RAID array, then boot

A RAID array could consist of a single loop device.
Also linux_find_partition does not allocate enough memo
Hi,

Hi,
In the last emails we discussed scripting support. Because it was
quite hard to explain everything and it was quite easy to implement

hacking.
It is not complete scripting support. All it is is just a structure

GRUB Legacy only works on PC BIOS on i386 PCs.
GRUB 2 only works on PC BIOS on i386 PCs, Openfirmware on PowerPC and RISC OS
on ARM. A Op

GRUB should support modes with fixed palettes, in order to support (firmware)

This patch creates a grub-install for PPC. Right now it requires
ofpathname (see earlier mail) to be installed in /usr/sbin. It also
requires /sbin/nvsetenv to be present for full functionality.
Here's the basic scenario: /boot/grub is a mounted firmware-readable
