The following wording might be a little more neutral; i found when |
| 19 |
reading the original version (until i reached the end that is) it |
| 20 |
seemed as if the flag was being removed rather than just not being |
| 21 |
default-enabled anymore. |

The multislot use flag in sys-boot/grub-2.x, which had been enabled by |
| 26 |
default, is now off by default. |
| 27 |
|
| 28 |
When the flag is enabled, all upstream binaries and documentation are |
| 29 |
renamed to "grub2" so as not to collide with grub-0. Now that the use |
| 30 |
flag is no longer default-enabled, these names will revert back to |
| 31 |
their upstream defaults. For example, grub2-mkconfig will become |
| 32 |
grub-mkconfig, grub2-install will become grub-install, etc. |
| 33 |
|
| 34 |
If you wish to retain the previous naming scheme please make sure to |
| 35 |
explicitly enable USE="multislot" on sys-boot/grub in the usual manner. |
