- moved mandriva patches from 1..15 to 10000..10015
- use %%makeinstall_std

Sat Aug 12 00:00:00 2006 Pixel
+ 2006-08-11 10:56:50 (55585)
- import grub-0.97-17mdk

Fri Feb 3 23:00:00 2006 Pixel 0.97-17mdk
- drop reiser4 patch since it breaks

Thu Feb 2 23:00:00 2006 Pixel 0.97-16mdk
- add BuildRequires: texinfo
- add reiser4 support (though no BuildRequires yet on reiser4progs-devel which is in contrib)
(thanks to Lukas Oboril )

Tue Jan 24 23:00:00 2006 Pixel 0.97-15mdk
- don\'t use old gcc 3.3 anymore (it works nicely with gcc 4)
- use mkrel
- drop non working \"once\" patch

Mon Jan 23 23:00:00 2006 Pixel 0.97-14mdk
- don\'t set CFLAGS to optflags
(when testing objcopy in configure, option -fasynchronous-unwind-tables causes failure)
- add \"once\" patch from fedora patch:
add support for lilo -R-esque select a new os to boot into

Tue Sep 13 00:00:00 2005 Pixel 0.97-13mdk
- search the boot drive and call grub-install
when there is no install.sh but a menu.lst and a stage2 (for upgrading conectiva)
(the previous condition was checking device.map, but there is none)
(maybe we could use /root/tmp/mi/grubcmd...)

Fri Sep 9 00:00:00 2005 Pixel 0.97-12mdk
- allow /boot to be mounted noexec (using \"sh /boot/grub/install.sh\") (#17935)

Fri Sep 2 00:00:00 2005 Pixel 0.97-11mdk
- patch grub-install to generate /boot/grub/install.sh
- add code in %post to search the boot drive and call grub-install
when there is no install.sh but a device.map (for upgrading conectiva)
- remove code modifying existing install.sh
(sometimes it\'s better not using \"setup\" for explictly not using stage1.5,
for eg. when you use partimage or similar tools which don\'t save those sectors)

Tue Aug 16 00:00:00 2005 Herton Ronaldo Krzesinski 0.97-10mdk
- Added %post and %preun requires for info-install (ticket #17418).

Sat Aug 6 00:00:00 2005 Herton Ronaldo Krzesinski 0.97-9mdk
- Before using perl script to update /boot/grub/install.sh inside
%triggerun, we check if the file exists. Also, all output redirected
to /dev/null as it isn\'t useful.

Fri Jul 15 00:00:00 2005 Herton Ronaldo Krzesinski 0.97-8mdk
- Revert back change \"Replaced /lib references to /%{_lib}\", as Gwenole
Beauchesne reported it\'s unlikely we\'ll have a 64 bits bootloader and could
cause problems with scripts using /lib in a hardcoded way.

Thu Jul 14 00:00:00 2005 Herton Ronaldo Krzesinski 0.97-7mdk
- Finally fix BuildRequires of gpm and ncurses packages, had forgot to
fix this.
- Updated bootsplash image, new Mandrivas\'s wallpaper.
- Replaced /lib references to /%{_lib}.

Thu Jul 14 00:00:00 2005 Herton Ronaldo Krzesinski 0.97-6mdk
- Escape \'$\' symbols at embedded perl script inside triggerun script,
otherwise they get interpreted as shell variables and doesn\'t work as
intended.

Wed Jul 13 00:00:00 2005 Herton Ronaldo Krzesinski 0.97-5mdk
- Added athlon 64 architectures to Exclusive Archs, grub also works on
them (reported by Thierry Vignaud).
- In trigger scripts, do not use cp to copy stage files, instead use mv,
to avoid problems with grub not finding them on boot because of changed
inodes and improved trigger script to remove files not used (reported
by Pascal Rigaux).

Tue Jun 21 00:00:00 2005 Herton Ronaldo Krzesinski 0.97-4mdk
- Compiling grub with gcc 3.3, I\'m getting some errors still when trying
to boot from a root reiserfs partition, will continue to investigate
this but for now just using a older gcc to not leave grub broken. Also
readding use of optflags doesn\'t causes problems.
- Remove /boot/grub/backup_stagefiles after upgrading from grub
versions prior to 0.97-1mdk, as suggested by Pixel.
- Pass build/host options etc. to configure script.
- Update stage files on /boot/grub (copy them from /lib/grub to
/boot/grub) because setup command inside /boot/grub/install.sh needs
this and doesn\'t copy automatically the stage files (grub-install also
does this).

Sat Jun 18 00:00:00 2005 Herton Ronaldo Krzesinski 0.97-3mdk
- Readded back previous %post code, now install.sh from drakboot is
generated correctly. Removed related Requires(post) too.
- Fix expansion of %{buildroot} tag on previous changelog entry.

Tue May 31 00:00:00 2005 Herton Ronaldo Krzesinski 0.97-2mdk
- Updated BuildRequires, removed tetex and added tetex-latex/tetex-dvips
(needed for building ps documentation, they already requires tetex).
- Do not use configure macro (instead call configure directly), because
it sets gcc flags that are breaking grub when compiling with gcc 4.0 in some
cases (grub can\'t boot from a root reiserfs partition because can\'t load
kernel, displaying the error \"Invalid or unsupported executable
format\", for example, disabling the default gcc flags and reinstalling
grub seems to fix the problem).
- Replaced $RPM_BUILD_ROOT by %{buildroot}.
- Moved back text documentation files to subpackage doc.
- Added back mbchk to package.
- Removed grub-install patch: it is better to install stage files in /lib,
and with this we don\'t need the patch anymore, keeping compatibility
with cases where /usr reside in another partition. This also prevents
that with a new grub release we must update or check grub-install for
errors and update this patch. Another problem that I experienced with
stage files installed in /boot/grub is that grub-install itself
updates these files on each run, and this causes conflicts because grub
then doesn\'t have anymore the original stage file from the package,
sometimes complaining that /boot/grub/stage2 file isn\'t valid.
- Redid graphics patch: fixed gcc4 warnings, other fixes on code to be
more robust.
- Redid chainboot patch: fixed gcc4 warnings.
- Added to post section more code to detect and upgrade grub.
- Added patch gcc4_warnings, fixing most of gcc4 compiling warnings.
- Added trigger scripts to handle upgrading from previous grub packages
(the /boot/grub/
*stage
* files are removed causing the next boot fail
with Error 15).

Mon May 30 00:00:00 2005 Herton Ronaldo Krzesinski 0.97-1mdk
- New upstream version: 0.97.
- Making sure that we\'re using automake and aclocal 1.9, by explicitly calling
them (without using the binaries from alternatives).
- Reenabled building of documentation files.
- Redid graphics patch: updated to new grub version and removed redundant .orig
files inside it.
- Renamed graphics_info patch to graphics-chainboot_info to reflect better its
contents.
- Removed gcc4 patch, applied upstream.
- Fix bug in src.rpm: menu.lst.example wasn\'t included into the source rpm file.
- Installing additional files (README etc.).
- Added explicitly permission modes on files section (spec).

Tue May 24 00:00:00 2005 Herton Ronaldo Krzesinski 0.96-1mdk
- New upstream version: 0.96.
- Added menu.lst.example file, showing a default configuration as
example, placed in /boot/grub.
- Added gcc4 patch, fix compilation issues with gcc 4.0.
- Removed init-config-end--prepatch, does nothing.
- Removed robust and fallback-entryno patches, already applied
upstream.
- Added mdvversion patch, to show release of the package on boot menu,
spec updated accordingly.
- Added a more complete special-raid-devices patch.
- Removed grub-0.90-grub-install patch file, there is another patch
grub-0.96-grub-install that does the same thing.
- Removed uneeded compatibility patches, grub just ignore these
options if they still exists: i18n-messages-and-keytable2,
altconfigfile-deprecated.
- Added addsyncs patch from Fedora.
- Replaced graphics with a better one, fixes graphical mode bugs, add
additional opptions (viewport - move drawing of characters and border,
shade - add shadow for letters). Added also updated info files
(graphics_info patch), removed splashimagehelp patch.
- Added chainboot patch: this adds chainboot option to grub. Chainboot
is useful for bootable cdroms for example, where after the timeout
instead of booting from the cdrom boot from first hard disk.
- Added eltorito patch: fix various issues with grub implementation of
eltorito non-emulation boot support.
- Replaced geometry-26kernel patch with a better one without bugs (the
current patch makes grub to display the message \"Unable to read
partition table entry: Invalid Format\" when writing mba of a disk for
example (to reproduce, try with old release 8mdk the command
grub-install /dev/hda)
- Added mem_lower patch.
- Added odirect patch from Fedora.
- Added a simple splash image, based on current Mandriva wallpaper.
- Spec changed accordingly patches/issues fixed.

Wed Mar 9 23:00:00 2005 Pixel 0.95-8mdk
- fix loading initrd when you have more than 4GB
(otherwise 32 bits signed int comparison in memcheck is wrong)

- provides bootloader (basesystem now requires \"bootloader\" instead of lilo)

Fri Jan 2 23:00:00 2004 Pixel 0.93-4mdk
- altconfigfile is kept, but doesn\'t do anything anymore (bug #6664)
