As nobody voiced any opposition to moving to tagged multiboot it's done. Spec is available at http://bzr.savannah.gnu.org/r/grub/branches/multiboot2/ and implementation is already in grub2 mainline (as multiboot2 command). To the best of my knowledge all fields are properly aligned and the whole is quite portable except "machine state" section which will have to be rewritten for every architecture. If you're interested in seeing multiboot2 spec on your favorite (or non-fvorite) ISA feel free to propose ammendments. Some of information which seems deprecated in multiboot1 wasn't carried over to tagged version. If you disagree about their deprecation feel free to propose ammendments. They weren't removed because of being considered harmful but because updating them seemed like a waste of time.= Also I'm aware that at least some people want more tags. Feel free to propose new ones. In short all ammendment ideas are welcome. --=20 Regards Vladimir '=CF=86-coder/phcoder' Serbinenko --------------enigA4C86E76AEBF7A33E0B9E7B8 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" Content-Description: OpenPGP digital signature Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.10 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iF4EAREKAAYFAkuvTp0ACgkQNak7dOguQglOyQD/UhpkNFQyyz+1Musht1Z4WbBU lUBOi/SgToJQGwpjq0oA/1QAivlOia1UawkBeS2HBNgYKe0mPovVLJgkgsz9r8p8 =nyBI -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------enigA4C86E76AEBF7A33E0B9E7B8--
