Bootloader with support for Linux, Multiboot and more
This is the second version of the GRUB (Grand Unified Bootloader),
a highly configurable and customizable bootloader with modular
architecture. It support rich scale of kernel formats, file systems,
computer architectures and hardware devices.
PLEASE NOTE: This is a development snapshot, and as such will not
replace grub if you install it, but will be merely added as another
kernel to your existing GRUB menu. Do not replace GRUB (grub package)
with it unless you know what are you doing. Refer to README.openSUSE
file that is part of this package's documentation for more information.

I think it is good time to update to 2.02 so it can get more testing. Although internal changes are pretty extensive, externally it should be pretty much the same. The main user visible changes are - autogen is not used anymore, so we can finally simplify patches and recreate files during RPM build. So generated files need not be patched and shipped any more. - GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT is deprecated, we should use GRUB_TIMEOUT_STYLE instead. This will need perl-Bootloader and YaST changes. Old config is still accpepted so nothing should be broken. - native pvgrub2 support for Xen PV guests. - ARM support (32 and 64 bit), although it has rough edges.
