get_diskinfo() patch: fallen through the cracks? |

In early August I posted a description of problems I was having using
GRUB as a boot loader on my machine. A lengthy discussion ensued; see
<http://mail.gnu.org/pipermail/bug-grub/2001-August/thread.html#5353>
for the archive.
By the end of August we had concluded that get_diskinfo_floppy() should
be removed and get_diskinfo_standard() modified to not use it. I
presented a patch to implement this change. There were no followup
comments, but more than a month later the patch has not yet been
applied.
Apparently it has fallen through the cracks. The original patch is
still available at
<http://mail.gnu.org/pipermail/bug-grub/2001-August/005489.html>. I'd
still like to see it applied, as GRUB hangs my box without it.
Maintaining my own locally-modified GRUB helps me but won't help anyone
else with similar hardware.
So ... how 'bout that patch? Pretty please?
