Hi, 

I just tried to download the manual from ftp://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/grub/
but the 0.94 .tgz file I downloaded didn't include the manual.

So I downloaded the manual from 
http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/manual/grub.html
but it says it's the 0.93 manual.

Is the 0.94 manual downloadable somewhere else?

(By the way, the 0.93 HTML manual has a minor bug - all the way from "How to 
boot an OS directly with Grub' on down, large chunks are in bold type.
And the reason seems to be, many headings are tagged like this:
<h3 class="subsection">How to boot an OS directly with GRUB</h4>

Maybe this is fixed in the 0.94 manual )
