* Resynchronise with Debian. Remaining changes:
- Adjust for default Ubuntu boot options ("quiet splash").
- Default to hiding the menu; holding down Shift at boot will show it.
- Set a monochromatic theme and an aubergine background for Ubuntu.
- Apply Ubuntu GRUB Legacy changes to legacy update-grub script: title,
recovery mode, quiet option, tweak how memtest86+ is displayed, and
use UUIDs where appropriate.
- Fix backslash-escaping in merge_debconf_into_conf.
- Remove "GNU/Linux" from default distributor string.
- Add crashkernel= options if kdump and makedumpfile are available.
- If other operating systems are installed, then automatically unhide
the menu. Otherwise, if GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT is 0, then use keystatus
if available to check whether Shift is pressed. If it is, show the
menu, otherwise boot immediately. If keystatus is not available, then
fall back to a short delay interruptible with Escape.
- Allow Shift to interrupt 'sleep --interruptible'.
- Don't display introductory message about line editing unless we're
actually offering a shell prompt. Don't clear the screen just before
booting if we never drew the menu in the first place.
- Remove some verbose messages printed before reading the configuration
file.
- Suppress progress messages as the kernel and initrd load for
non-recovery kernel menu entries.
- Change prepare_grub_to_access_device to handle filesystems
loop-mounted on file images.
- Ignore devices loop-mounted from files in 10_linux.
- Show the boot menu if the previous boot failed, that is if it failed
to get to the end of one of the normal runlevels.
- Don't generate /boot/grub/device.map during grub-install or
grub-mkconfig by default.
- Adjust upgrade version checks for Ubuntu.
- Don't display "GRUB loading" unless Shift is held down.
- Adjust versions of grub-doc and grub-legacy-doc conflicts to tolerate
our backport of the grub-doc split.
- Fix LVM/RAID probing in the absence of /boot/grub/device.map.
- Look for .mo files in /usr/share/locale-langpack as well, in
preference.
- Make sure GRUB_TIMEOUT isn't quoted unnecessarily.
- Probe all devices in 'grub-probe --target=drive' if
/boot/grub/device.map is missing.
- Build-depend on qemu-kvm rather than qemu-system for grub-pc tests.
- Use qemu rather than qemu-system-i386.
- Program vesafb on BIOS systems rather than efifb.
- Add a grub-rescue-efi-amd64 package containing a rescue CD-ROM image
for EFI-AMD64.
- On Wubi, don't ask for an install device, but just update wubildr
using the diverted grub-install.
- When embedding the core image in a post-MBR gap, check for and avoid
sectors matching any of a list of known signatures.
- Put second and subsequent Linux menu entries in a submenu.
- Add a background_color command.
- Add preferred resolution detection for VBE. GRUB_GFXMODE now defaults
to "auto".
- Set vt.handoff=7 for as smooth a handoff as possible to kernel
graphical mode.
* Drop patch to disable video_bochs and video_cirrus on PC BIOS systems;
PCI probing should be fixed now.
grub2 (1.99~20110104-1) experimental; urgency=low
* New Bazaar snapshot.
- Don't emit drivemap directive for Windows Server 2008 (closes:
#607687).
- Don't add spurious RAID array members (closes: #605357).
- Improve presentation of Xen menu entries (closes: #607867).
- Fix PCI probing hangs by skipping remaining functions on devices that
do not implement function 0 (closes: #594967).
- Fix typo in descriptions of extract_legacy_entries_source and
extract_legacy_entries_configfile (LP: #696721).
* Merge 1.98+20100804-12:
- Use semicolons rather than commas to separate size from model in
debconf disk and partition descriptions.
* Add full btrfs support, from the upstream 'butter' branch.
* Support partitioned loop devices and improve devmapper support, from the
upstream 'devmapper' branch.
* Add squashfs 4 support, from the upstream 'squash' branch.
