+# [GRUB](http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/)
+
 This section complements the [[InstallNotes]] with complete information regarding the GRUB boot loader. The syntax is different from Lilo's and so to scratch my own itch I'm creating this quick reference. The [Grub manual](http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/manual/grub.html) is another good reference.
 
 * update-grub is **Debian specific** and very nice. It will automatically create a /boot/grub/menu.lst file for the kernels in /boot/. It will also append a manually configured set for other partitions like the GNU/Hurd.

-
-* Mozilla Bookmarks = del.ici.ous
-   * Need more explanation ? ;-)
-
-* <http://hnb.sf.net>
-   * having a directory structure for a file can allow to "svn commit"  the hnb document in a more "node-safe" manner, thus allowing multiple people to work on the same hnb document.
-   * This must be fairly easy as HNB can already export to XML and XMLfs already exists.
-
-* DavFS 
-   * Just setup a 'WebDav share' as a directory. The implimentation of the protocol is already available in nautilus and konqueror.
-
-* Compiled form of your project 
-   *  you have your project in /somedir/project with source in /somedir/project/src .. /somedir/project/bin should always have the compiled version.. is it possible?
-   * The source has to have a MakeFile.
-   * creating /somedir/project/bin-somearch should aotomatically crosscompile
-   * Seems feasible for a small project.
-
-* Report generation FrameWork - an idea to be hugged by app developers..not kernel developers.
-   * You have financial data in some Spreadsheet like format in /yourFinance directory
-   * You add report templates to /yourFinance/repTemplates
-   * Once you save data in /yourFinance the next cat /yourFinance/reports/areportname will give you an uptodate report.
-   * This will be usefull for any purpose including serving by static page web servers, sharing over samba/nfs/ftp etc.!
-   * The advantage is any save to the spreadsheet will update the report.. not just from one software.
-
-* SVN  (Subversion suite) 
-   * like [[cvsfs]]. /svndir/version/version-no should automatically have subversion  
-   * I think it is nice to write a generalised version control system framework library which will help in writing version control translators and other tools easily.
-
-* Flexi-acls
-   * First of all - Can this be done? : A translator bound to a directory must be able to access the contents of the directory which would have been accessible in the absence of the translator.. 
-   * This will enable to wirte translators that can implement custom "Access Control Lists". Just imagine having advanced ACLs even if underlying FileSystem is dumb!  Imagine changing the type of ACLs implemented with Just two commands - one to unattach previous translator and the next to attach a different ACL translator! The ACLs themselves may be stored in a different directory
-
-* The translator manager!
-   * Some translators will need to be inserted automatically - like for eg: hardware drivers ..
-   * Each hardware translator will pubish its capabilities.
-   * The "top" translator will query the capabilities of different hardware and match capabilities with the "slave" translators. That is it's only Job.
-   * The control is then handed over to the slave translator.
-   * The ranking not only looks who can handle the "most" capabilites of the hardware. If it finds that multiple translators can handle the same hardware, It will use other parameters to choose between them.. like may be the size in memory? The revision date? Stability (inferred from version number)? And to go to the extreme, the profiling data of the driver ;-P
-   * Advantage : The best driver wins!
-
-* An eg. Skip it if you understood the above :-):  
-   * You have a driver that can handle VGA + SVGA + Super3d acceleration + Particle graphics + Works for nvidea card.      
-   * You have a driver that can handle SVGA + VGA .
-   * You have a driver that can handle VGA.
-   * Case 1: Your card: A VGA card with some extra fonts.. 
-      * First the VGA driver will be quireied .. ok can handle essential capability. 
-      * Next SVGA driver:  can handle but has extra module.. unnecassary weight .
-      * The Nvidia driver:  can handle , but again unnecassary weight : ruled out.
-      * Winner : VGA driver:
-    * Case 2: Your card An SVGA card: 
-       * First the VGA driver will be quireied .. ok can handle one essential capability. 
-       * Next SVGA driver:  can handle essential and one extra capability no extra weight..
-       * The Nvidia driver:  can handle , but  unnecassary weight : ruled out.

-   * set output's translator plugin as ordinary text -- have text to speech conversion done by sound server! 
-   * Create and apply plugin presets by simply copying directories!
-   * Me getting dizzy thinking of the zillion more advantages. 
-   * If you are really doing some ordinary output , all you need to do is "cat" data into next free "plug" and everything will be autodetected including the format of the data and sent to the final sound "merge"r

-   * One can access device files remotely
-   * This could be acheived by allowing translators talk to one another over a network
-   * This will need translators to catch and handle ioctls (if there is such a thing in HURD).
-   * The device server which will listen to requests from the translators can be run even on a Linux machine!!!

-Describes the GNU/Hurd boot process.
-
-# <a name="Bootloader"> Bootloader </a>
-
-[GRUB](http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/) (GRand Unified Bootloader) is the default (and as far as I know the only supported ) bootloader for GNU/Hurd and is the initial process.
-
-GRUB can be used for booting multiple Operating Systems on a given machine. Device naming convention for GRUB is different than that of the Hurd. Where the first partition on the primary IDE drive in GNU/Hurd is hd0s1, in GRUB it is (hd0,0). In the case of GNU/Hurd, the first thing that GRUB loads is kernel image.
-
-Here is a copy of GNU/Hurd multi-user entry from menu.lst. The first two lines are primarily informational and are what get displayed on the GRUB boot menu.
-
-    # Entry 2:  1st partition on first HDD
-    title  GNU/Hurd (IDE 1st partition - hd0s1 multi-user)
-    root   (hd0,0)
-    kernel /boot/gnumach.gz root=device:hd0s1
-    module /hurd/ext2fs.static --multiboot-command-line=${kernel-command-line} \
-                               --host-priv-port=${host-port}                   \
-                               --device-master-port=${device-port}             \
-                               --exec-server-task=${exec-task}                 \
-                               -T typed ${root} $(task-create) $(task-resume)
-    module /lib/ld.so.1 /hurd/exec $(exec-task=task-create)
-
-**_N.B. the escaped new lines above should end in only a back slash, no spaces!_**
-
-The line "root (hd0,0)" tells GRUB where to look for the root partition. Notice that the (hd0,0) is using GRUB naming conventions.
-
-The next line loads the gnumach kernel image itself. Notice here the root=device:hd0s1 argument. This is now using GNU/Hurd device naming convention, telling the Hurd where the root partition exists.

-Minor formatting and edit check.
-
-On a side note. The actual description of the GNU/Hurd boot process is a good idea but keeping duplicated information to a bare minimum must be the guide line for a "book" like this. See other topics for more information on Grub configuration for instance.

-GNUMach is based on Mach4 from University of Utah, which in turn is based on Mach3 from Carnegie-Mellon University. The last release of Mach4 was the [UK22 release](http://www.cs.utah.edu/flux/mach4-i386/html/mach4-UK22.html).

-The oskit-mach version of GNU Mach was presented in November 1999 by Roland McGrath. <http://mail.gnu.org/pipermail/bug-hurd/1999-November/003554.html> The purpose of the port was to get better hardware support through new drivers and platform code available in the OSKit.
-
-On May 27 2002, after the Gnumach 1.3 release, Roland McGrath merged OSKit-Mach onto the HEAD of CVS making it the Gnumach 2.x mainline.
-
-# <a name="Status_of_the_project"> Status of the project </a>
-
-GNU Mach 1.3 was released in May 2002, and features advanced boot script support, support for large disks (&gt;= 10GB) and an improved console.
-
-GNU Mach is used as the default microkernel in the GNU/Hurd system. It is compatible with other popular Mach distributions. The device drivers for block devices and network cards are taken from Linux 2.0.x kernel versions, and so a broad range of common hardware is supported.
-
-However, the Linux device drivers have been improved greatly since the 2.0.x version, and a new version of GNU Mach based on the OSKit library is being worked on, which uses newer drivers and in general has cleaner machine specific support code.
