GRand Unified Bootloader (common files)

This package contains common files shared by the distinct flavours of GRUB. It is shared between GRUB Legacy and GRUB 2, although a number of files specific to GRUB 2 are here as long as they do not break GRUB Legacy.

grub-mkrescue needs the suggested packages mtools (for UEFI targets) and xorriso.
