  • Ticket #770

    • Property Summary multiboot support broken → GRUB Legacy support broken

  • Ticket #770 – Description

    initial v8  
    1 As of 64f85f54a27d11f2ce4cf0aef2e2fb35918fe5cd, booting HelenOS using GRUB Legacy (a.k.a. GRUB 1) does not work. Since GRUB Legacy is the reference (and probably sole) implementation of the original multiboot specification (not to be confused with multiboot2), we can consider the multiboot support itself broken.
