Follow-up Comment #1, bug #18471 (project grub): It was brought to my attention that the nocopy patch may not work on some systems. This patch supercedes that one. It loads the initrd in 1MB increments. This way it will avoid trashing BIOS reserved memory and also will not pose a problem for systems with large memory where the operation reading directly from disk may not be able to access the upper memory regions. _______________________________________________________ Reply to this item at: <http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?18471> _______________________________________________ Message sent via/by Savannah http://savannah.gnu.org/
