I'm happy to announce the release of GRUB 1.91. This is the second of
our prereleases leading up to GRUB 2.0. We encourage you to try it, as
we have done a significant amount of work towards GRUB 2. Note that this
release is mainly for developers who are willing to contribute to our
project. If you need a working solution immediately, you'd better to stick to
GRUB Legacy at the moment.
The source distribution is available from <ftp://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/grub/>.
Send any questions, ideas, bug reports to <grub-devel@gnu.org>.
Here is the relevant NEWS:
New in 1.91 - 2005-10-15:
* Add support for LZO version 2.
* Support completion in the entry editor.
* Add VBE support.
* New commands, "search", "vbetest" and "vbeinfo".
* The option BOOT_IMAGE is passed to Linux.
* Add support for automatic decompression for gzip.
* Add support for terminfo and serial.
* Add support for x86_64.
* GRUB itself is a Multiboot-compliant kernel.
* Add new filesystems: XFS, SFS, and AFFS.
Thanks,
Marco
