Description Need Real Name 2001-11-05 09:18:55 UTC
Description of Problem:
No manual entry for grub.conf.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
grub-0.90-11

How Reproducible:
It hasn't been there any time I've checked.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. install Red Hat 7.2 for ia32
2. log in
3. type "man grub.conf"

Actual Results:
"No manual entry for grub.conf"

Expected Results:
Man page on the format of the configuration file or a
pointer to where to find that information.

Additional Information:
Yes, I see there is a page for grub.  Maybe making
grub.conf.5 be a symlink would be good enough.  Though
I _really_ hate the info program :)

Check out the pinfo package to make your info reading more pleasant. 
Unfortunately, unless a man page for the config file is contributed upstream,
it's unlikely to happen, so marking WONTFIX for now (although obviously if one
appears upstream, I'll include it in the package :-)
