From db6d85e1ff652f1980f1f7bc119c613f0b65d19e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: okuji Date: Tue, 28 May 2002 22:23:03 +0000 Subject: [PATCH] BUGS doesn't have information any longer, because we use the BTS on Savannah instead. --- BUGS | 53 ++++------------------------------------------------- 1 file changed, 4 insertions(+), 49 deletions(-) diff --git a/BUGS b/BUGS index 6c6b5dbc5..14c1f72ea 100644 --- a/BUGS +++ b/BUGS @@ -1,52 +1,7 @@ -Known problems/bugs: +See the Bug Tracking System for GNU GRUB on Savannah. The URL is: - - The dumb terminal doesn't work properly. It doesn't work well with - a long command-line, and when a non-empty command-line string is - set, it doesn't work with Emacs expectedly. +http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?group_id=68 (without SSL) - - The auto-filling mechanism doesn't work correctly with the serial - terminal. +or - - In the netboot code, tlan and fa311 are not used, even though they - are distributed. That's because the entry for tlan is commented out - in the file "NIC" of Etherboot, and fa311 isn't used actually in - Etherboot. Probably they will be fixed in next version of Etherboot. - - - The command "geometry" doesn't work with a floppy very well. This - bug was incorporated after the rewrite of the partition scanning - code by okuji. - - - GRUB cannot boot newer versions of NetBSD or OpenBSD directly. - - - The command "map" seems not to work in some environments. - - - GRUB cannot boot any uncommon format of floppies, such as 1.68MB. - Perhaps we should add support to embed a fixed geometry in a drive. - - - GRUB cannot boot FreeBSD 3.4 and 4.0 directly. So you must - chain-load them instead. - - - FreeBSD boot command-line options are slightly problematic, and - OpenBSD options are probably quite wrong. This is because they - use options that are bits in a data word passed at boot time, and - the developers change the encoding sometimes. Will re-sync in a later - release. - - - If an "uppermem" command was used to tell GRUB it had a different - amount of upper memory available, then the user escapes to the menu - interface, the upper memory displayed there still says the amount - set by the user instead of being reset to the default by the escape. - It actually resets when the next command-line is entered or config - file entry is executed. - - - There is at least one problem when using an "install_partition" that is - a BSD sub-partition where the PC partition isn't explicit (i.e. - the default 0xFF00FF is a problem)... this is when using "makeactive" - without explicitly setting the root partition. If this is done, a - "no such partition" error will be generated. - - - Cannot boot FreeBSD "kzip"ed image. Use a normal kernel (using GRUB's - automatic "gzip" decompression works fine). - - - Hitting Ctrl-Alt-Delete when in GRUB locks some machines. Use Reset - for now.
