* Resynchronise with Debian. Remaining changes:
- Adjust for default Ubuntu boot options ("quiet splash").
- Default to hiding the menu; holding down Shift at boot will show it.
- Set a monochromatic theme and an aubergine background for Ubuntu.
- Apply Ubuntu GRUB Legacy changes to legacy update-grub script: title,
recovery mode, quiet option, tweak how memtest86+ is displayed, and
use UUIDs where appropriate.
- Fix backslash-escaping in merge_debconf_into_conf.
- Remove "GNU/Linux" from default distributor string.
- Add crashkernel option.
- Bypass menu unless other OSes are installed or Shift is pressed.
- Allow Shift to interrupt 'sleep --interruptible'.
- Reduce visual clutter in normal mode.
- Remove verbose messages printed before reading configuration.
- Suppress kernel/initrd progress messages, except in recovery mode.
- Handle filesystems loop-mounted on file images.
- Ignore devices loop-mounted from files in Linux grub.d scripts.
- Show the boot menu if the previous boot failed.
- Don't generate device.map during grub-install or grub-mkconfig.
- Adjust upgrade version checks for Ubuntu.
- Suppress "GRUB loading" message unless Shift is held down.
- Adjust versions of grub-doc and grub-legacy-doc conflicts.
- Fix LVM/RAID probing in the absence of /boot/grub/device.map.
- Look for .mo files in /usr/share/locale-langpack first.
- Make sure GRUB_TIMEOUT isn't quoted unnecessarily.
- Build-depend on qemu-kvm rather than qemu-system for grub-pc tests.
- Use qemu rather than qemu-system-i386.
- Add a grub-rescue-efi-amd64 package.
- On Wubi, don't ask for an install device, but just update wubildr
using the diverted grub-install.
- Enable lua from grub-extras.
- Incorporate the bitop library into lua.
- Add enum_pci function to grub module in lua.
- Check hardware support before using gfxpayload=keep.
- Build part_msdos and vfat into EFI boot images.
- Put second and subsequent Linux menu entries in a submenu.
- Preferred resolution detection for VBE.
- Set vt.handoff=7 for smooth handoff to kernel graphical mode.
- Don't ask where to install if upgrading and core.img doesn't exist.
- Drop the default priority of grub2/linux_cmdline to medium.
- Build with gcc-4.5 on ppc64.
- Add apport hook for ProblemType = 'Package'.
grub2 (1.99~rc1-4) unstable; urgency=low
* Don't touch /boot/grub/grub2-installed if using the --root-directory
option to grub-install (thanks, Nicolas George; closes: #614927).
* Update branch_devmapper.patch, adding partitioned MD RAID support
(untested) and support for probing multipath disks.
* Update ntldr-img from grub-extras:
- Only call ntfs_fix_mmft if the attribute to find is AT_DATA. This
matches GRUB's NTFS module.
- Install grubinst as grub-ntldr-img.
* Fix loading GRUB from lnxboot (LP: #693671).
* Update branch_embed-sectors.patch to avoid straying into first partition
when embedding-area sectors are in use (closes: #613409, LP: #730225).
