Grub2 will be used on machines that have no UEFI boot, that is. most less-than-current hardware.
It is *not* dead, it is just that grub will not be used when a dramatically simple solution like gummiboot is available.
True. Basil, please show us a bootloader as simple as gummiboot for normal BIOS and you will be the hero of many.
OK, so what this gummiboot is about is all to do with UEFI and will not work if the motherboard does not have UEFI - is this correct? If so and as my mobo does have UEFI, which I have switched off, I can use gummiboot with impunity, right?
