Hi list, I don't have access to my gentoo.org email account at the moment, so this will have to do for now. I have some code at http://dev.gentoo.org/~port001/Code/GLI/BootloaderConf/ which is basicaly an abstraction layer for generating bootloader configurations. Give it some general data and it'll produce a working configuration for the bootloader of your choice. The bootloader.xml contains some skeleton configurations, but is by no means complete. I need to sit down with someone from Releng and produce and complete list (I'll arrange this at a later date). No doubt this will also require some more changes to the code. For now you can give it a whirl for grub, lilo, silo and maybe aboot (need to read up on aboot's configuration a little more). Can codeman, esammer, npmcallum, samyron, etc please take a look and decided if you would infact like to use it in the installer. Regards, Ian Leitch (port001)
