Do we need $desc/-n ? It looks like a workaround for a limitation in help2m

Ok, I see that it doesn't. util/resolve.c takes care of that.

Now the CD boots, but the result is interesting:
Real PC: escape to rescue mode, root=hd31, no (cd0) device, no modules.
VMWare: same.
VirtualPC: escape to rescue mode, root=cd15, (cd0) exists, normal mode
can be started manually.
VirtualBox: Works as expected.

Hi,
This patch add a.out support for multiboot. It also support the boot2
loader (a.out format) of freebsd:
set root=(hd0,0,a)
aout_freebsd /boot/loader

It seems that the parser eats the extra '=' when used after a variable
evaluation:

a

This breaks e.g. variable comparison via "test $a=b". Does someone have an
idea on how to fix it? I assume it involves the bison stuff which is highly

hello!
Does anybody interested in adding support for reiser4 in grub 2.x? I'm
original author of libreiseir4 (part of reiser4progs package) and might
add reiser4 support using libriser4 (as I did it for grub 1.x >4 years
ago) . It may be done quite easily.
Thanks.

Hi All,
Here is a patch that changes this gray pattern for unknown glyphs to
rounded question mark. This way user knows that something is missing :)
(and it is easily visible).
Another story is, should we provide default fonts and/or use system
fonts where available.
Thanks,
Vesa Jääskeläi

Hi all,
Somebody has made a help-grub mailing list so users like me can
get their queries asked & solved. I would request some of the whizzes
to also subscribe to the same so queries can be solved.
