grub-installer (1.47ubuntu1) lucid; urgency=low
* Resynchronise with Debian. Remaining changes:
- Show the grub menu and raise the menu timeout if other operating
systems are installed (only for GRUB Legacy right now).
- Ask grub-installer/only_debian at medium priority.
- Remove splash boot parameter unless debian-installer/framebuffer=true.
- If / or /boot are on a removable device, install GRUB there by
default.
- Only mount /target/proc if it isn't already mounted.
- 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.
- Unless grub-installer/make_active is preseeded to false, mark the
partition to which GRUB is being installed as bootable, or failing
that the first available primary partition on the disk to which GRUB
is being installed.
- Support grub-installer/bootdev_directory preseeding to make use of the
relative path feature of grub4dos, so that we can point grub4dos at
part of a disk for Wubi. Setting this disables normal grub
installation, but still generates a device.map (for GRUB Legacy only);
it also hides the menu.
- Handle cases where /boot is bind-mounted.
- Add support for writing an GRUB Legacy MBR on each disk in an
mdadm-managed RAID providing /boot. (GRUB 2 can handle this already.)
- Properly make use of output from os-prober to configure the booting of
other operating systems on dmraid arrays. Attempt to guess where in
the device map the array belongs, by substituting the first drive in
the dmraid array for the dmraid array device node itself, and removing
any reference to other member disks of the array.
- Set a sensible default boot device when /cdrom is not iso9660, as this
is probably a USB install and (hd0) does not make sense when
installing from a removable disk.
- Go back to using update-grub -y for GRUB Legacy for now; our grub
package is a bit old and still requires this.
- Default to grub2 for GPT systems.
- Allow grub/grub2 choice for ext4, though still default to grub2.
- Preseed grub-pc/install_devices based on grub-installer/bootdev.
- If /boot is on an MD device and we're using GRUB 2, install GRUB there
rather than (hd0); GRUB 2 will interpret that as meaning that it needs
to install to each of the RAID members.
- Always use GRUB Legacy when /boot is on a multipath device.
- Mount /target/sys when running update-grub.
- If using GRUB 2 and installing to a RAID device any of whose
components are partitions, then default to installing to the MBRs of
each of the containing disks, since GRUB 2 will refuse to install to
the partition devices.
grub-installer (1.47) unstable; urgency=low
[ Colin Watson ]
* By request of grub2's Debian maintainers, pass --force to grub-install
when using GRUB 2, in order to override the warning about using
blocklists in the event that the user selected an installation location
that requires them.
* Fix typo in fallback case when computing $disc_offered_devfs.
grub-installer (1.46) unstable; urgency=low
[ Colin Watson ]
* grub_write_divider is specific to GRUB Legacy; don't call it for GRUB 2.
[ Felix Zielcke ]
* Merge from Ubuntu:
- Explicitly install os-prober when using GRUB 2, since it does a better
job than the otheros script.
grub-installer (1.45) unstable; urgency=low
[ Colin Watson ]
* Fix some hardcoded uses of /target.
[ Felix Zielcke ]
* Install GRUB 2 by default.
grub-installer (1.44) unstable; urgency=low
* Try installing `grub-legacy' first before `grub' in case GRUB Legacy
has to be installed.
* Remove Robert Millan from Uploaders with his permission.
