Hi there,

I know next to nothing about GRUB, and have not yet read the
multiboot spec, but I wonder if you could comment on how or
whether this is related to either the Open Firmware Device Tree
or the Flattened Device Tree used in various embedded OS ports.
It would be cool if there were some convergence going on...

Cheers,
