Hi,
while testing grub2-svn on a macbook, I have just seen that grub2 do
not treat
HFS+ as case insensitive ( and so it could not load the config file
with my laptop,
because of a case problem ).
According to http://developer.apple.com/technotes/tn/tn1150.html :
"HFS Plus stores strings fully decomposed and in canonical order. HFS
Plus compares strings
in a case-insensitive fashion. Strings may contain Unicode characters
that must be ignored
by this comparison. For more details on these subtleties, see Unicode
Subtleties."
I also have a second patch for the same problem on hfsx , send in a
second mail.
