It would have been less bumpy if i were a better Debian admin. :)) I will ponder about possible fixes. For now i have: - A new static variable and setter API call in grub-install-common.c similar to grub_install_backup_ponr, which keeps clean_grub_dir() from running clean_grub_dir_real (di, CREATE_BACKUP); append_to_backup_dirs (di); and rather does clean_grub_dir_real (di, CLEAN_NEW); - The same static variable but with a new API call grub_install_copy_files_nobkp() which sets the variable temporarily and then runs grub_install_copy_files() - A new API call of grub-util to run restore_backup_atexit(). Called in grub-mkrescue.c somewhere between grub_set_install_backup_ponr (); and rv = grub_util_exec ((const char *const *)xorriso_argv); @ Vladimir Serbinenko: If you are watching, this would be a good moment to issue an opinion. Have a nice day :) Thomas
