Re: grub2 2.00, PXE boot, and freebsd 9.1

[Richard A. Sitze]

Well *that* resolve the "not an IP" error [and, of course, on to my next 
issue - which I need to do my homework on before bringing anything up here].

A quick diff of the 2.00 and trunk doesn't give me any good feel for any 
one simple change to 2.00 that would fix the issue.

Is trunk stable with respect to the core functionality?  Or is there a 
path to a definitive patch to 2.00 for this issue given that it works on 
trunk?
