| Known problems/bugs: | |
| - FreeBSD boot command-line options are slightly problematic, and | |
| OpenBSD options are probably quite wrong. This is because they | |
| use options that are bits in a data word passed at boot time, and | |
| the developers change the encoding sometimes. Will re-sync in a later | |
| release. | |
| - Password feature in the config file is a bit primitive, and needs | |
| fleshing out/design work to make more intuitive. | |
| - If an "uppermem" command was used to tell GRUB it had a different | |
| amount of upper memory available, then the user escapes to the menu | |
| interface, the upper memory displayed there still says the amount | |
| set by the user instead of being reset to the default by the escape. | |
| It actually resets when the next command-line is entered or config | |
| file entry is executed. | |
| - There is at least one problem when using an "install_partition" that is | |
| a BSD sub-partition where the PC partition isn't explicit (i.e. | |
| the default 0xFF00FF is a problem)... this is when using "makeactive" | |
| without explicitly setting the root partition. If this is done, a | |
| "no such partition" error will be generated. | |
| - Cannot boot FreeBSD "kzip"ed image. Use a normal kernel (using GRUB's | |
| automatic "gzip" decompression works fine). | |
| - Hitting Ctrl-Alt-Delete when in GRUB locks some machines. Use Reset | |
| for now. (This apparently hasn't been observed for a while) |
