[arch-dev-public] [newsitem] grub/grub2
Hi, I drafted a newsitem for when I'll kill GRUB legacy and move GRUB v2 to [core] in one of following days. Any comments/improvements are welcome! Ronald ##################################### GRUB legacy no longer supported GRUB 2.x has moved to [core]. With this move support for GRUB legacy (i.e. version 0.9x) is dropped, which is now moved to AUR. Although GRUB legacy will not be removed from your system and will stay fully functional, you should consider upgrading to GRUB version 2.x, or one of the other supported bootloaders. Please consult <a href="https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Grub">the wiki</a> for detailed installation instructions for GRUB version 2.x. #####################################

Please consult <a href="https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Grub">the wiki</a> for detailed installation instructions for GRUB version 2.x. "the Grub wiki page" - links that have generic titles are not helpful, or at least I would expect that to link to the front page of the wiki and not a specific article.

It seems there is still grub2 in extra. You might want to remove it with /arch/db-remove and then remove the svn directory. Greetings, Pierre -- Pierre Schmitz, https://pierre-schmitz.com
