Package: grub-pc

Description: GRand Unified Bootloader, version 2 (PC/BIOS version)
GRUB is a portable, powerful bootloader. This version of GRUB is based on a cleaner design than its predecessors, and provides the following new features:
 - Scripting in grub.cfg using BASH-like syntax.
 - Support for modern partition maps such as GPT.
 - Modular generation of grub.cfg via update-grub. Packages providing GRUB
 add-ons can plug in their own script rules and trigger updates by invoking
 update-grub.
 - VESA-based graphical mode with background image support and complete 24-bit
 color set.
 - Support for extended charsets. Users can write UTF-8 text to their menu
 entries.
This is a dependency package for a version of GRUB that has been built for use with the traditional PC/BIOS architecture. Installing this package indicates that this version of GRUB should be the active boot loader.
