grub2 2.00-21 source package in Ubuntu

Changelog

grub2 (2.00-21) unstable; urgency=low


  [ Robert Millan ]
  * Backport from upstream:
    - Accept ZFS version 5000 (feature based).

  [ Colin Watson ]
  * Silence error message on initial installation when /etc/default/grub
    does not yet exist.
  * Add GRUB_RECOVERY_TITLE option, to allow the controversial "recovery
    mode" text to be customised (LP: #1240360).
  * Backport from upstream:
    - Revamp hidden timeout handling by adding a new timeout_style
      environment variable and a corresponding GRUB_TIMEOUT_STYLE
      configuration key for grub-mkconfig.  This controls hidden-timeout
      handling more simply than the previous arrangements, and pressing any
      hotkeys associated with menu entries during the hidden timeout will
      now boot the corresponding menu entry immediately (LP: #1178618).  As
      part of merging this, radically simplify the mess that
      quick_boot.patch had made of /etc/grub.d/30_os-prober; if it finds
      other OSes it can now just set timeout_style=menu and make sure the
      timeout is non-zero.
    - Fix build with FreeType 2.5.1.

Binary packages built by this source

grub-common: GRand Unified Bootloader (common files)

 This package contains common files shared by the distinct flavours of GRUB.
 It is shared between GRUB Legacy and GRUB 2, although a number of files
 specific to GRUB 2 are here as long as they do not break GRUB Legacy.

grub-coreboot: GRand Unified Bootloader, version 2 (Coreboot version)

 GRUB is a portable, powerful bootloader. This version of GRUB is based on a
 cleaner design than its predecessors, and provides the following new features:
 .
  - Scripting in grub.cfg using BASH-like syntax.
  - Support for modern partition maps such as GPT.
  - Modular generation of grub.cfg via update-grub. Packages providing GRUB
    add-ons can plug in their own script rules and trigger updates by invoking
    update-grub.
 .
 This package contains a version of GRUB that has been built for use with
 platforms running the Coreboot firmware.

grub-coreboot-bin: GRand Unified Bootloader, version 2 (Coreboot binaries)

 GRUB is a portable, powerful bootloader. This version of GRUB is based on a
 cleaner design than its predecessors, and provides the following new features:
 .
  - Scripting in grub.cfg using BASH-like syntax.
  - Support for modern partition maps such as GPT.
  - Modular generation of grub.cfg via update-grub. Packages providing GRUB
    add-ons can plug in their own script rules and trigger updates by invoking
    update-grub.
 .
 This package contains a version of GRUB that has been built for use with
 platforms running the Coreboot firmware. It will not automatically install
 GRUB as the active boot loader, nor will it automatically update grub.cfg
 on upgrade, so most people should install grub-coreboot instead.

grub-coreboot-dbg: GRand Unified Bootloader, version 2 (Coreboot debug files)

 This package contains debugging files for grub-coreboot-bin. You only need
 these if you are trying to debug GRUB using its GDB stub.

grub-efi: GRand Unified Bootloader, version 2 (dummy package)

 This is a dummy transitional package that depends on either grub-efi-ia32 or
 grub-efi-amd64, depending on the architecture.

grub-efi-amd64: GRand Unified Bootloader, version 2 (EFI-AMD64 version)

 GRUB is a portable, powerful bootloader. This version of GRUB is based on a
 cleaner design than its predecessors, and provides the following new features:
 .
  - Scripting in grub.cfg using BASH-like syntax.
  - Support for modern partition maps such as GPT.
  - Modular generation of grub.cfg via update-grub. Packages providing GRUB
    add-ons can plug in their own script rules and trigger updates by invoking
    update-grub.
 .
 This package contains a version of GRUB that has been built for use with
 EFI-AMD64 architecture, such as the one provided by Intel Macs (that is, unless
 a BIOS interface has been activated).

grub-efi-amd64-bin: GRand Unified Bootloader, version 2 (EFI-AMD64 binaries)

 GRUB is a portable, powerful bootloader. This version of GRUB is based on a
 cleaner design than its predecessors, and provides the following new features:
 .
  - Scripting in grub.cfg using BASH-like syntax.
  - Support for modern partition maps such as GPT.
  - Modular generation of grub.cfg via update-grub. Packages providing GRUB
    add-ons can plug in their own script rules and trigger updates by invoking
    update-grub.
 .

 EFI-AMD64 architecture, such as the one provided by Intel Macs (that is, unless
 a BIOS interface has been activated). It will not automatically install
 GRUB as the active boot loader, nor will it automatically update grub.cfg
 on upgrade, so most people should install grub-efi-amd64 instead.

grub-efi-amd64-dbg: GRand Unified Bootloader, version 2 (EFI-AMD64 debug files)

 This package contains debugging files for grub-efi-amd64-bin. You only
 need these if you are trying to debug GRUB using its GDB stub.

 GRUB is a portable, powerful bootloader. This version of GRUB is based on a
 cleaner design than its predecessors, and provides the following new features:
 .
  - Scripting in grub.cfg using BASH-like syntax.
  - Support for modern partition maps such as GPT.
  - Modular generation of grub.cfg via update-grub. Packages providing GRUB

grub-efi-ia32-dbg: GRand Unified Bootloader, version 2 (EFI-IA32 debug files)

 This package contains debugging files for grub-efi-ia32-bin. You only need
 these if you are trying to debug GRUB using its GDB stub.

grub-emu: GRand Unified Bootloader, version 2 (emulated version)

 This package contains grub-emu, an emulated version of GRUB. It is only
 provided for debugging purposes.

grub-emu-dbg: GRand Unified Bootloader, version 2 (emulated debug files)

 This package contains debugging files for grub-emu. You only need these if
 you are trying to debug GRUB using its GDB stub.

grub-firmware-qemu: GRUB firmware image for QEMU

 This package contains a binary of GRUB that has been built for use as
 firmware for QEMU. It can be used as a replacement for other PC BIOS
 images provided by seabios, bochsbios, and so on.
 .
 In order to make QEMU use this firmware, simply add `-bios grub.bin' when
 invoking it.
 .
 This package behaves in the same way as GRUB for coreboot, but doesn't
 contain any code from coreboot itself, and is only suitable for QEMU. If
 you want to install GRUB as firmware on real hardware, you need to use the
 grub-coreboot package, and manually combine that with coreboot.

grub-ieee1275: GRand Unified Bootloader, version 2 (Open Firmware version)

 GRUB is a portable, powerful bootloader. This version of GRUB is based on a
 cleaner design than its predecessors, and provides the following new features:
 .
  - Scripting in grub.cfg using BASH-like syntax.
  - Support for modern partition maps such as GPT.
  - Modular generation of grub.cfg via update-grub. Packages providing GRUB
    add-ons can plug in their own script rules and trigger updates by invoking
    update-grub.
 .
 This package contains a version of GRUB that has been built for use with
 Open Firmware implementations.

grub-ieee1275-bin: GRand Unified Bootloader, version 2 (Open Firmware binaries)

 GRUB is a portable, powerful bootloader. This version of GRUB is based on a
 cleaner design than its predecessors, and provides the following new features:

    update-grub.
 .
 This package contains a version of GRUB that has been built for use with
 Open Firmware implementations. It will not automatically install GRUB as
 the active boot loader, nor will it automatically update grub.cfg on
 upgrade, so most people should install grub-ieee1275 instead.

grub-ieee1275-dbg: GRand Unified Bootloader, version 2 (Open Firmware debug files)

 This package contains debugging files for grub-ieee1275-bin. You only
 need these if you are trying to debug GRUB using its GDB stub.
