grub-pc 1.95+20070604-1ubuntu1 (amd64 binary) in ubuntu gutsy
GRUB 2 (also known as PUPA) is the Preliminary Universal Programming
Architecture for GRUB. It is a research project for the next generation of
GNU GRUB. The most important goal is to make GNU GRUB cleaner, safer, more
robust, more powerful, and more portable.
.
GRUB 2 targets at the following goals:
.
- Scripting support, such as conditionals, loops, variables and functions.
- Graphical interface.
- Dynamic loading of modules in order to extend itself at the run time
rather than at the build time.
- Portability for various architectures.
- Internationaliz
message catalogs like gettext, fonts, graphics console, and so on.
- Real memory management, to make GNU GRUB more extensible.
- Modular, hierarchical, object-oriented framework for file systems, files,
devices, drives, terminals, commands, partition tables and OS loaders.
- Cross-platform installation which allows for installing GRUB from a
different architecture.
- Rescue mode saves unbootable cases. Stage 1.5 was eliminated.
- Fix design mistakes in GRUB Legacy, which could not be solved for
backward-
.
This package contains a version of GRUB that has been built for use with
traditional PC/BIOS architecture.
