bootloader for woody
Hello,
Which bootloader is going to ship in the Woody bootfloppies, is it clear
yet?
I'd like to suggest using the GRUB bootloader. As I see it, there's an
important
advantage in using GRUB:
- GRUB will be able to boot the future Debian releases of GNU/Hurd,
GNU/FreeBSD,
GNU/Win without going through the mess fo having different bootloaders in
every
boot sector. Setting GRUB as the default bootloader in Woody will prevent
problems
when Debian users want to try some other release.
And as it's been announced, GRUB now supports the iso9660 filesystem and
meets
the requirements to boot the installation system from CDROM.
Regards,
--
