   Changes since 2.02s2 beta 1 version:

* (Devel)    grub-mkstandalone was deleted because we no longer use it

* Updated (and added) Copyright notices for 2015

* New option: 'Disks and Partitions (Chainload)' adapted from Smx work

* Many files were rewritten so that they only loop between devices that actually need to be searched into.
This enhacement will make Super Grub2 Disk faster.

* Remove Super Grub2 Disk own devices from search by default. Added an option to be able to enable/disable the Super Grub2 Disk own devices search.


    2.02s2 beta 1 changelog:

    * Updated grub 2.02 build to commit: 8e5bc2f4d3767485e729ed96ea943570d1cb1e45
    * Updated documentation for building Super Grub2 Disk
    * Improvement on upstream grub (d29259b134257458a98c1ddc05d2a36c677ded37 - test: do not stop after first file test or closing bracket) will probably make Super Grub2 Disk run faster.
    * Added new grub build scripts so that Super Grub2 Disk uses its own built versions of grub and not the default system / distro / chroot one.
    * Ensure that Mac OS X entries are detected ok thanks to Users dir. This is because Grub2 needs to emulate Mac OS X kernel so that it's detected as a proper boot device on Apple computers.
    * Thanks to upstream grub improvement now Super Grub2 Disk supports booting in EFI mode when booted from a USB device / hard disk. Actually SG2D was announced previously to boot from EFI from a USB device while it only booted from a cdrom.


    2.02s1 beta 1 changelog:
   
    * Added new option: "Enable all native disk drivers" so that you can try to load: SATA, PATA and USB hard disks (and their partitions) as native disk drives. This is experimental.
    * Removed no longer needed options: "Enable USB" and "Enable PATA".
    * "Search floppy" and "Search cdrom" options were moved into "Extra GRUB2 functionality menu". At the same time "Extra Search functionality" menu was removed.
    * Added new straight-forward option: "Enable GRUB2's RAID and LVM support".
    * "List devices/partitions" was renamed to "Print devices/partitions".
    * "Everything" option was renamed to "Detect and show boot methods".
    * "Everything +" option was removed to avoid confusions.
    * Other minor improvements in the source code.
    * Updated translation files. Now most translations are pending.
    * Updated INSTALL instructions.
