Subject: mkfs command in grub
Date: Thu, 09 Mar 2006 21:14:52 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <44107EAC.5030300@yahoo.com> (raw)
Can someone please comment if adding filesystem creation support to grub
is reasonable.
Please see the rationale at
http://www.geocities.com/technologypages/grub-mkfs.txt
Will the developers consider adding this feature? It is rather easy to
implement as far as I can see -- only glue for external filesystem
creation code needs to be added.
Although the swap sharing use case discussed in the rationale is
trivial, it is a common problem that may bring many multi-OS users over
to GRUB 2 and create positive "media coverage" (if that feature will be
added).
