* include/grub/dl.h (grub_dl_check_header): New prototype.
	(grub_arch_dl_check_header): Change return type to grub_err_t,
	remove size parameter and export function.  Update all callers.
	* kern/dl.c (grub_dl_check_header): New function.
	(grub_dl_load_core): Use `grub_dl_check_header' instead of
	`grub_arch_dl_check_header'.  Check ELF type.  Check if sections
	are inside the core.
	* kern/i386/dl.c (grub_arch_dl_check_header): Remove arch
	independent ELF header checks.
	* kern/powerpc/dl.c (grub_arch_dl_check_header): Likewise.
	* loader/i386/pc/multiboot.c (grub_rescue_cmd_multiboot): Use
	`grub_dl_check_header' instead of explicit checks.  Check for the
	ELF type.

This file contains invisible Unicode characters

This file contains invisible Unicode characters that are indistinguishable to humans but may be processed differently by a computer. If you think that this is intentional, you can safely ignore this warning. Use the Escape button to reveal them.

This is GRUB 2, the second version of the GRand Unified Bootloader.
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.

See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install the
GRUB 2 data and program files.

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.
