Pete Batard 2faf36ffb4 [core] add FreeNAS support 
* And reverted grub2 to the one from b3947fc026 (reverts commit 8b47e95eb5)
  since FreeNAS doesn't work with the older one.
  Sorry "Super Grub2 Disk" and other older GRUB2 based tools, but you'll need to
  update the Grub version you use if you want to be compatible with Rufus.
* Closes #244

- Creates DOS bootable USB drives, using FreeDOS or MS-DOS with no external files required
- Creates MBR or GPT/UEFI bootable drives
- Creates bootable drives from bootable ISOs (Windows, Linux, etc.)

- Can perform bad blocks check, with fake drive detection
- Modern and familiar UI, with more than 30 languages natively supported (2)
- Small footprint, no installation required
- 100% Free Software (GPL v3)

Compilation:
  Use either Visual Studio 2013, WDK 7.1 (Windows Driver Kit) or MinGW and then
  invoke the .sln, wdk_build.cmd or configure/make respectively.

  Note that, since Rufus is an OSI compliant Open Source project, you are entitled to
  download and use the *freely available* Visual Studio 2013 Community Edition to
  build, run or develop for Rufus. As per the Visual Studio Community Edition license
  this applies regardless of whether you are an individual or a corporate user.

  or http://pete.akeo.ie/2014/11/visual-studio-2013-has-now-become.html

  Rufus provides extensive information about what it is doing, either through
  its easily accessible log, or through the Windows debug facility.
