Changelog
grub2 (2.00-20) unstable; urgency=low
* Backport from upstream:
- Sort gnumach kernels in version order (closes: #725451).
* Move packaging to git, following upstream. Adjust Vcs-* fields.
* Remove obsolete DM-Upload-Allowed field.
* Merge (completely!) from Ubuntu:
- Handle probing striped DM-RAID devices (thanks, Robert Collins;
LP: #803658).
- Unconditionally create grub.cfg on our EFI boot partition in Secure
Boot mode; GRUB always needs some configuration in this case to find
/boot/grub, since we can't modify the signed image at install time
(Steve Langasek, LP: #1236625).
- If MokManager is present on the host system, copy it onto the EFI boot
partition for use (Steve Langasek).
- Adjust UEFI installation to cope with Kubuntu setting GRUB_DISTRIBUTOR
(LP: #1242417).
- If building for Ubuntu:
+ Bypass menu unless other OSes are installed or Shift is pressed.
+ Show the boot menu if the previous boot failed.
+ Set GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD_LINUX=keep unless it's known to be unsupported
on the current hardware.
+ Set vt.handoff=7 for smooth handoff to kernel graphical mode.
+ In recovery mode, add nomodeset to the Linux kernel arguments, and
remove the 'set gfxpayload=keep' command.
+ Set default timeout to 10 seconds.
+ Enable hidden timeout support by default.
- Migrate timeout settings from menu.lst.
- Probe FusionIO devices (LP: #1237519).
* Make grub.cfg world-unreadable if even hashed passwords are in use
(closes: #632598).
