	support for base system curses/ncurses as well as ncurses itself. suggested by wiz.

2003-07-13	Fix grub-install problem reported in PR 22049 by Soren Jacobsen.	wiz	1	-4/+3
	While here, convert to USE_NEW_TEXINFO, and make it compile. [freestanding, but using nested functions; gcc emits __enable_exec_stack, which lives in libgcc, but is not linked because the program is supposed to be freestanding. Provide dummy __enable_exec_stack function.] Bump PKGREVISION.
2003-07-13	PKGREVISION bump for libiconv update.	wiz	1	-1/+2

2003-01-24	Update grub to 0.93. Changes in this version:	jmmv	1	-2/+3
	* Define the behavior of the boot loader when the load end address is zero and the bss end address is zero in the Multiboot Specification. Also, add the support into GRUB. * Finally, we have a Bug Tracking System! Now the preferable way to report bugs is to use the BTS rather than sending e-mail to bug-grub. See <http://bugcomm.enbug.org/?project=grub&mode=project>, for more details. * The appendix "FAQ" in the manual is removed. See the GNU GRUB FAQ on the web <http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/grub-faq.html> instead. * The terminal handling code is rewritten radically, and many bugfixes are made at the same time. * The command "color" is effective even in the command-line. * The command "terminal" takes two new options, ``--no-echo'' and ``--no-edit''. If you specify ``--no-echo'', GRUB won't echo back input characters. If you specify ``--no-edit'', GRUB will disable the BASH-like editing feature. These options are useful when using an intelligent terminal (such as the comint mode in GNU Emacs). * The utility ``grub-md5-crypt'' prompts to retype a password and checks if the passwords match. * Support for booting Linux is rewritten, so GRUB now supports large-EBDA systems. * The menu interfaces supports Page Up, Page Down, and Right Key. * New command "terminfo", for vt100-incompatible terminals. * New options, ``-D'', ``-g'' and ``-m'' are supported for FreeBSD.

	Julio Merino in PR pkg/17354.
2002-06-08	Grub is only available for i386.	cjep	1	-1/+3

2002-04-30	Enable grub on <1.5Y by using the binutils package.	wiz	1	-5/+2

2002-04-30	Update to 0.92:	wiz	1	-2/+2
	* The command "displaymem" uses only hex digits for consistency. * The netboot code goes back to the progress bars instead of dots, for the notation of data transfers. And, that is displayed only in debug mode, that is to say, nothing is displayed by default. Remember that you can turn on debug mode via the command "debug". * The command "help" doesn't show all the available commands by default, when no argument is specified. Rarely used commands (such as "testload") and useless commands in interactive use (such as "savedefault") are hidden. If you want to see help messages for those commands, specify the new option "--all". * A built-in, `more'-like pager is added. When a command prints too many lines to fit the screen, GRUB waits until you hit return key. This feature can be turned off by the new command "pager". * The command "terminal" accepts a new option, "--lines=LINES". You can set the maximum number of lines arbitrarily with this option. If you don't specify it, the maximum number will be 24. * The command "terminal" accepts another new option, "--silent". You can suppress the "Press any key to continue" message with this option. * The mem= option for Linux is recognized and used to limit the maximum address of initrd. * A fallback entry is executed immediately after a default entry, without prompting a user's intervention, as the manual has ever been saying. * The utility ``grub-install'' makes sure that GRUB images have been written to a physical disk completely. To assist this feature, a new command "dump" is added.

	pkg/15065. I updated it to 0.91 and removed patch-aa which the submitter already sent to the grub people. GRUB is the GRand Unified Bootloader. Briefly, bootloader is the first software program that runs when a computer starts. It is responsible for loading and transferring control to the operating system kernel software (such as NetBSD orLinux). GRUB understands ffs, FAT{16,32}, ext2fs, ReiserFS, minixfs, and VSTafs. It can directly boot NetBSD, FreeBSD, OpenBSD and Linux without any other bootloader, loading a.out and ELF kernels from the disk and passing along necessary arguments (in most cases). It can also boot any operating system (the above, plus eg Windows, OS/2) by chaining to that operating system's specific loader. Grub features a runtime command line and loads its configuration at boot rather than requiring rerunning of a separate utility. Other features are TFTP booting, serial console support, large disk support, support for both DOS MBR label and BSD disklabel simultaneously, booting from hard drive or floppy. GRUB is available for the i386 architecture only.
