[aklug] Re: GRUB RE: Friday night Linux

I have used GRUB ever since I discovered/was introduced to it. Before =
that I used LILO.

If GRUB is not being developed and is being abandoned, then what are =
other people using? I just upgrade last year to HRUB 2.0 on my systems.

Kind of quiet last night. A couple of college students on break, Damien
and myself.

Daamien and I got to talking about why Fedora is still using Grub v1
instead of v2.

I looked it up and someone had asked the question on a Fedora Developer
list. A developer told him because Grub is turning into abandon-ware, no
active development.

Just checked it out on Freshmeat, the developer appears correct. The
only 'update' release since 2006 has been a license change to GLP3 in
2008.

I wonder what we'll use next...
