* 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.
- Build-depend on qemu-kvm rather than qemu-system for grub-pc tests.
- 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.
- 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.
* Drop patch to use qemu rather than qemu-system-i386, now that qemu-kvm
ships a symlink.
* Rewrite hwmatch.lua in C. Drop lua grub-extras module.
* Update ubuntu_vbe_autodetect.patch, bringing GRUB_GFXMODE documentation
up to date.
* Fix use of freed memory when replacing existing loopback device
(LP: #742967).
grub2 (1.99~rc1-8) unstable; urgency=low
* Cherry-pick from upstream:
- Fix FreeBSD compilation problem.
grub2 (1.99~rc1-7) unstable; urgency=low
* Add /proc/mdstat, LVM information, and listings of /dev/disk/by-id/ and
/dev/disk/by-uuid/ to bug reports, by request of upstream.
* Cherry-pick from upstream:
- Use libgeom on FreeBSD to detect partitions (closes: #612128).
- Copy the partition table zone if floppy support is disabled, even if
no partition table is found (LP: #741867).
- Fix an ext2 overflow affecting inodes past 2TiB.
- Fix RAID-0 disk size calculation for metadata 1.x (LP: #743136).
* Merge from Ubuntu:
- Build with gcc-4.5 on ppc64.
- Add apport hook for ProblemType = 'Package', thanks to Jean-Baptiste
Lallement (LP: #591753).
