adapts YaST-like comments in existing sections to be handled
properly by yast-bootloader (#283709)
- Version bump to 0.4.21

Mon Aug 13 14:00:00 2007 odAATTsuse.de
- feature #302302:
- removed CreateChainloaderLine() function and call again:
- we use a \"root\" entry now in a configfile section
- perl-Bootloader cannot pass a value consisting of both a Unix
device name and a file name between yast2-bootloader and
perl-Bootloader (i.e.
\"/dev/disk/by-label/testing/boot/grub/menu.lst\"), this is not
safely analyzable
- during the last tests, the line was disabled anyway because
it triggered on \"other\" instead of \"menu\" section type
- fetching grub_root device (to be used in re-created \"root\" key)
from \"root\" key in \"other\" section now as well
- never use a hardcoded device like \"(hd0,0)\" in a \"rootnoverify\"
key as a fallback for a missing \"root\" specification from
yast2-bootloader: using \"(hd)\" now, which will generate an error
when the section is selected during boot
- version bump to 0.4.20

Mon Aug 13 14:00:00 2007 aosthofAATTsuse.de

corresponds to both /dev/sda1 and /dev/sda2 (#271797)

Wed Aug 1 14:00:00 2007 aosthofAATTsuse.de
- Adapt function DumpLog() to only write to perl-BL-standalone-log,

- Added milestones to functions AddSection() and RemoveSections()

/var/log/YaST2/y2log or to /var/log/YaST2/perl-BL-standalone-log,
depending on the state of the environment variable
YAST_IS_RUNNING. In addition to that, the printing of log
messages with level DEBUG can be switched on/off by
setting/unsetting the environment variable Y2DEBUG.

Fri Jul 6 14:00:00 2007 aosthofAATTsuse.de
