    3 * [r1723] VERSION:
    4 -version 8.4
    5 * [r1722] grubby.c, test/grub2.1, test/results/add/g2-1.1,
    6 test/results/add/g2-1.2, test/results/add/g2-1.3:
    7 Update "echo 'Loading..." messages to the new kernel version
    8
    9 grub2-mkconfig will create lines like:
    10 echo 'Loading Linux 3.1.0-0.rc6.git0.0.fc16.x86_64
    11 ...'
    12 - depending on the content of /etc/default/grub.
    13
    14 grubby would recognize these lines and replace them with lines
    15 with the
    16 right
    17 version number such as:
    18 echo 'Loading Fedora (3.1.0-0.rc6.git0.0.fc16.x86_64)'
    19
    20 these lines were however not recognized by grubby and would not
    21 be
    22 updated on
    23 next kernel update when this entry would be used as template.
    24
    25 With this patch grubby will no longer look for a specific title
    26 but
    27 patch any
    28 "echo 'Loading" line immediately before the kernel line.

    62 test.sh: add feature for testing the output of a grubby command

    69 * [r1718] grubby.c:
    70 GRUB: Fix detection by increasing offset when comparing stage1 to
    71 MBR
    72
    73 A couple of instructions of grub's stage1 get modified when
    74 copied to
    75 the
    76 MBR (replaced by NOOPs). Check for this condition, and skip these
    77 bytes
    78 while compare stage1 and MBR.

    83
    84 I trigger this crash on my system. It has syslinux and no grub.

    88 Adding extlinux support for new-kernel-pkg

    90 Signed-off-by: Christopher Li <kernel@chrisli.org>
    91 * [r1715] grubby.c:
    92 Look for other possible grub config files
    93
    94 Since debian and Ubuntu don't symlink /boot/grub/menu.lst
    95 to /etc/grub.conf, make it possible to look them over on
    96 this original location as well.

    99 * [r1714] grubby.c:
    100 Make grubby to recognize Ubuntu's spin of Grub2
    101
    102 We are looking to use grubby as a bootloader entries
    103 manager for the autotest project:
    104
    105 http://autotest.kernel.org/
    106
    107 The project aims to cover more distros than just
    108 red hat based ones, so this small patch fixes the
    109 tool under Ubuntu. They have chosen to name grub2
    110 grub, in all directory references. Also, they don't
    111 make symlinks of grub config files on /etc. So,
    112 adapt the code to take into consideration this
    113 behavior.
    114
    115 Changes from v1:
    116 * Removed nested set of {}
    117 * Made the return in case /etc/grub.d is found
    118 indented
    119 * Moved the dbgPrint("not found\n") statement
    120 before the last return. Also, put a new
    121 dbgPrint("found\n") if we've found a suitable
    122 grub2 config file ubuntu/debian style.

    125 * [r1712] ChangeLog:
    126 updated ChangeLog
    127 * [r1711] VERSION:
    128 -version 8.3
    129 * [r1710] new-kernel-pkg:
    130 Fix new-kernel-pkg invocation of grubby for grub (bz 725185)
    131
    132 new-kernel-pkg did not specify --grub when it called grubby to
    133 update the
    134 kernel entry with an initrd. Grubby would then try to probe what
    135 to
    136 do and
    137 would give preference to grub2 and thus leave an incomplete grub
    138 entry.
    139
    140 new-kernel-pkg did also not specify the grub config file
    141 explicitly
    142 to
    143 grubby as it do for the grub2 config file. That could perhaps in
    144 some
    145 situations cause grubby to do something else than new-kernel-pkg
    146 expected.
    147
    148 Now --grub -c $grubConfig is specified explicitly in all cases.
    149 * [r1708] ChangeLog:
    150 updated ChangeLog
    151 * [r1707] VERSION:
    152 -version 8.2
    153 * [r1706] new-kernel-pkg:
    154 Read HYPERVISOR and HYPERVISOR_ARGS from /etc/conf.d/grubby and
    155 set
    156 mbkernel and mbargs Signed-off-by: W. Michael Petullo
    157 <mike@flyn.org>
    158 * [r1704] ChangeLog:
    159 updated ChangeLog
    160 * [r1703] VERSION:
    161 -version 8.1
    162 * [r1702] new-kernel-pkg:
    163 Fix a miss-spelled variable name.
    164
    165 "grub2Config", not "grub2Cfg".
    166 * [r1700] ChangeLog:
    167 updated ChangeLog
    168 * [r1699] VERSION:
    169 -version 8.0
    170 * [r1698] test.sh, test/grub2.1[ADD], test/grub2.2[ADD],
    171 test/results/add/g2-1.1[ADD], test/results/add/g2-1.2[ADD],
    172 test/results/add/g2-1.3[ADD], test/results/add/g2-1.4[ADD]:
    173 Add some limited test cases for grub2.
    174 * [r1697] new-kernel-pkg:
    175 Update grub2 support to new-kernel-pkg
    176
    177 This uses grubby for grub2 on efi and non-efi machines.
    178
    179 2012-02-17 Niels Rogalla <niro@magellan-linux.de>
    180
    181 * [r1696] grubby.c:
    182 Add grub2.cfg support to grubby.
    183 * [r1695] Makefile:
    184 Add -ggdb
    185 * [r1694] Makefile, grubby.c:
    186 Tweak some make options.
    187
    188 Some functions are only used in dbgPrintf() arguments. As such,
    189 errors/warnings on unused functions need to be disabled.
    190
    191 Also, use -std=gnu99.
    192
    193 Also, add a debug target.
    194 * [r1693] grubby.c:
    195 Rename entrySeparator to entryStart.
    196
    197 Since we're actually using it to detect the start of an entry
    198 (and
    199 specifically not the end), name this slightly better.
    200 * [r1692] grubby.c:
    201 Convert configFileInfo structs to C99-style initializers.
    202
    203 Get rid of the old initializers where struct names were commends,
    204 in
    205 favor of C99-style assignment, so new fields can be put at
    206 logical
    207 places without having to change the whole file.
    208 * [r1691] new-kernel-pkg, uboot[ADD]:
    209 Add uboot support for ARM (#712199)
    210

    217 which we already done in our port of 7.0.17. ver up to be in sync
    218 with upstream
    219 * [r1431] new-kernel-pkg:
