bug#26339: [PATCH 00/18] wip: Support non grub bootloaders.

[Mathieu Othacehe]

Hi,

Here's a first draft of my work on bootloaders.
Basically, I rebased David patches and started to work on top of it.

I adapted system commands "init", "reconfigure" and "switch-generation"
to the new bootloader API.

All of this is functional with my basic configuration. Don't hesitate
to test this out and comment !

I still have to update documentation. I also left untested UEFI related
stuff.

Thanks,

Mathieu
