:-) > It doesn't need to be penetrable, does it? De gustibus non est disputandum. To me, one of the attractions of the whole Free Software thing is its "penetrability". I see that there's a force field among many poles, functionality and "getting things done NOW" being two very valid ones which sometimes are at odds with simplicity. And I readily admit that preferences are extremely individual. > The generated grub.cfg just needs to boot the machine.

Things get more complicated when you're in the position of "fixing" it :-) And please, again: the fact that I disagree with some Grub design decisions shouldn't detract from the fact that I have utmost respect for the Grub developers and packagers. Their hard work, their decisions. regards - -- tomás -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.12 (GNU/Linux) iEUEARECAAYFAld+MpgACgkQBcgs9XrR2kYYXwCdELtvb8dcQ1Zwgy/FO/mbmjRJ riAAljXe1c+7A3aKL2crpeDQBot9hkw= =LS3G -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
