Hi All,

I have uploaded a new version of the gnu-efi package on our FTP site.

Highlights of version 1.0 are:

- ability to create bigger binaries (David Mosberger)

- LILO: ability to load a FPSWA driver from a file if necessary
- LILO: some bug fixes and cleanups of error messages.
- LILO: put in a workaround to avoid the LoadOptionSize problem.

Note: This version of LILO still has some ACPI code. With firmware 60 and higher this is not required as the kernel does the processing to extract the information. So I expect to get rid of this support soon.

This new version is available at:
