tdmrc BootManager support for Grub2 ??

Tim, All, Since grub is dead upstream and movement is toward grub2, how will this be supported in tdm? Currently Grub and Lilo are the only boot managers supported. Has anybody looked to see what is needed to add Grub2 support? This will affect the shutdown dialog options to restart "Select bootloader". It looks like the main differences will be to parse /boot/grub/grub.cfg instead of /boot/grub/menu.lst. In grub, the menu.lst file was formatted like: # comment title root kernel initrd savedefault # comment for chainload title rootnorverify makeactive chainloader savedefault Under grub2 grub.cfg, you have something like: ### comment ### menuentry 'New Title' --class arch --class gnu-linux --class gnu --class os $menuentry_id_option 'gnulinux-core repo kernel-true-a625b429-6143-459c-a57c-6c5bba56d715' { load_video set gfxpayload=keep insmod gzio insmod part_msdos insmod ext2 set root='hd0,msdos5' if [ x$feature_platform_search_hint = xy ]; then search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set=root --hint-bios=hd0,msdos5 --hint-efi=hd0,msdos5 --hint-baremetal=ahci0,msdos5 a625b429-6143-459c-a57c-6c5bba56d715 else search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set=root a625b429-6143-459c-a57c-6c5bba56d715 fi echo 'Loading Linux core repo kernel ...' linux /boot/vmlinuz-linux root=UUID=a625b429-6143-459c-a57c-6c5bba56d715 ro quiet echo 'Loading initial ramdisk ...' initrd /boot/initramfs-linux.img } So for grub2 it looks like you will parse for 'menuentry' 'set root' in order to pass that information to grub2 for restart. Anybody looked into this yet? Do we want to open a feature request on it? (for those not using grub2 yet -- just wait :) -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.
