Hi,

I've just written a patch for this feature. In order to enable gzip
support, you just need to load the gzio module, then grub_file_open
will handle gz file just like they're not compressed. If you don't
want auto decompression, use grub_file_open_raw instead of
grub_file_open. You can also disable auto decompression by setting
nocomp=1.

btw, the current cvs code seems to have problem, i can't access
partition from hd! but i'm able to test this feature using (host) in
grub-emu.
