770	GRUB Legacy support broken	Martin Decky		"As of 64f85f54a27d11f2ce4cf0aef2e2fb35918fe5cd, booting HelenOS using GRUB Legacy (a.k.a. GRUB 1) does not work.

GRUB 0.97 from Fedora 12 reports ""Error 13: Invalid or unsupported executable format"" for the amd64 ELF kernel binary and ""Error 7: Loading below 1MB is not supported"" for the ia32 ELF kernel binary.

Manually converting the ELF kernel binary to a raw binary using `objcopy` solves the booting issue, but the VESA graphics mode is not initialized. AFAIK, GRUB Legacy actually never implemented the VESA mode setting (despite the specification) and that was the reason for the real-mode VESA code within SPARTAN that has been removed in e3fa1720e83c1029187354ec92323608505ed7e3."	defect	new	major		helenos/unspecified	mainline
