Synopsis: [bootmgr] [request] BootMgr should provide more identifying info (see also docs/38816)

State-Changed-From-To: open->closed
State-Changed-By: linimon
State-Changed-When: Sat Jan 26 01:04:50 UTC 2008
State-Changed-Why: 
Unfortunately our boot loader is very space-constrained because of the
way i386 disks are laid out by default.  We've had to go hunting for
bytes to save in the past.  Therefore, while this is a good idea, it's
not feasible.

Sorry that it took so long to address this PR.
