Recent revisions

16. By Colin Watson

Don't fall over if installing to an XFS root filesystem in
noninteractive mode (closes: Malone #46764).

15. By Colin Watson

* Return early from is_removable if the argument isn't a mount point
  (closes: Malone #40100).
* Support setting OVERRIDE_UNSUPPORTED_OS in the environment to force
  grub-installer to use its default MBR selection method despite there
  being unsupported operating systems on the disk (part of Malone #40131).

14. By Colin Watson

Remove espresso-grub package, moved into espresso proper.

13. By Colin Watson

* Modify defoptions now in the no-framebuffer case, not nonaltoptions.
* Add user parameters to defoptions rather than kopt, so that they aren't
  used in the recovery mode option (closes: Malone #31905).

12. By Colin Watson

* Resynchronise with Debian.
* Backport from trunk:
  - Disable grub-installer on Intel-based Macs.

11. By Colin Watson

Only mount /proc if it isn't already mounted.

10. By Colin Watson

* Make espresso-grub depend on espresso (yes, this means a circular
  dependency, sorry; closes: Malone #30045).
* Force grub-installer/bootdev to (hd0) in the event that not all
  installed operating systems are recognised. By definition, you can
  always repair the situation with the live CD you're installing from.

9. By Tollef Fog Heen

* Fix support for putting / on a removable device
  - Make sure to mount /proc before possibly running findfs, since it will
    fail if not
  - Use udevinfo as well as the removable flag file to detect if a device
    is removable or not. Anything on USB or IEEE1394 is defined as
    removable.
  - Override device.map if installing onto a removable device, since we
    know/hope that it will be BIOS drive 0x80

8. By Colin Watson

espresso/grubinstaller.py: Define prepare() instead of overriding
run_command(). Breaks espresso (<< 0.99.7).

7. By Colin Watson

* Resynchronise with Debian.
* Add an espresso-grub package, providing grub-installer as an Espresso
  module.
