I recently brought the homepage up here, but nobody really cared, though I forgot to mention this sentence in my mail, i.e. that it's still in development. Anyway if you use SVN trunk then it should be working fine for you. Password and savedefault are AFAIK the only missing features from grub-legacy. grub2 is still actively developed but not more in development like the homepage says. IMO it can be used by more people. > I am also interested to know about the graphics. I have seen google summer code project regarding the graphical part. Is it now included in the grub2 or is it simply possible to have the graphical part workable ? No it isn't yet included. I don't know in which state Colin's bazaar branch is. For now you have to get his stuff yourself from his page http://grub.gibibit.com/ -- Felix Zielcke
