After some Felix suggestions I improve this email.
Hi Debian grub2 package maintainers and al,
I am trying to do a Super Grub Disk package (supergrub) which
build-depends on grub2.
I have some basic questions.
#1
I have currently installed grub2 from unstable distribution.
I just wanted to know if LUA support is included in it.
Another related question if you recommend me to swith to another Debian
distribution such as experimental or if I should do pinning or something
for getting lfa support.
#2
Building floppies and cdroms for different architectures than x86. I
know that grub-pc is x86-based only, or at least, I think so.
So is there any easy way to build ppc cdrom images or the grub-mkimage
command is only x86 based?
Is there maybe some Debian ppc packages that I am unaware of?
#3
I will, for sure, ask on mentors mailing list for better checking. I
have still to fix a bug that I have found.
I have used 1.01 as a package version instead of 1.21-1 because upstream
version is 1.21.
If you are bored (Don't think so ;) ) and want to check if my Debian
package source code satisfies Debian package policies. Or you just want
to check it for giving a piece of advice on how to improve it:
UPSTREAM: http://prdownload.berlios.de/supergrub/supergrub-1.21.tar.gz
DEBIAN PACKAGE: http://prdownload.berlios.de/supergrub/supergrub_1.02.tar.gz
---
I suppose I have many other questions but I will ask them in another emails.
Just hope that some free time to answer my questions.
Thank you very much!
