* util/i386/pc/grub-install.in (grub_probefs): New variable.
        (modules): Likewise.
        (usage): Added descriptions for --modules and --grub-probefs.
        Handle --modules and --grub-probefs. Save the arguments in MODULES
        and GRUB_PROBEFS, respectively.
        Auto-detect a filesystem module against GRUBDIR. If the result is
        empty and modules are not specified explicitly, abort the
        installation. Add the result to MODULES.

        * DISTLIST: Removed boot/powerpc/ieee1275/ieee1275.c,
        disk/powerpc/ieee1275/ofdisk.c,
        include/grub/powerpc/ieee1275/init.h and
        term/powerpc/ieee1275/ofconsole.c.
        Added disk/ieee1275/ofdisk.c, kern/ieee1275/of.c and
        term/ieee1275/ofconsole.c.

        * include/grub/powerpc/ieee1275/console.h: Resurrected.

        * COPYING: Upgraded to the latest version. Only the address of the
        FSF office has changed.

GRUB 2 is rewritten from scratch to make GNU GRUB cleaner, safer, more
robust, more powerful, and more portable.
Because GRUB 2 was formerly developed under the project PUPA, there
remain still many places where PUPA is used instead of GRUB 2. So
suppose that PUPA is a synonym of GRUB 2 for now.
See the file NEWS for a description of recent changes to GRUB 2.

Please visit the official web page of GRUB 2, for more information.
The URL is <http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/grub.html>.
Because GRUB 2 is still in developmental stage, GRUB 2 is not for general
use (yet). For now, you can install GRUB 2 into a floppy by these
instructions:
$ configure && make
$ ./grub-mkimage -v -d . -o core.img _chain ext2
$ dd if=boot.img of=/dev/fd0 bs=512 count=1
$ dd if=core.img of=/dev/fd0 bs=512 seek=1
It would be easier to use Bochs <http://bochs.sf.net/> than a real
machine.
For now, there is not much documentation yet. Please look at the GRUB
Wiki <http://www.autistici.org/grub/> for testing procedures.
