Some of you may already know that setting up grub-legacy on Debian
can be imposable,
Imposable ? What would impose it ?
Debian grub-legacy setup is no longer supported, yet it can still be
install so you can get a readable menu when you upgrade the kernel.
That sounds contradictory with "imposable". Did you mean "impossible" ?
One question : why use GRUB legacy ?
I multi-boot 20 installed .deb systems on the computer is the reason why.
So what ? Can't GRUB 2 handle 20 different systems ?
One suggestion : upgrade.
Not an option, I would be screwing with a grub config file that's not
designed to be readable by man
Even though, grub.cfg is perfectly readable by man when you're used to
it. I am a man and I can read it.
and with 20 systems just updating grub-pc
is unnecessary time consuming. If I was running one or two systems
grub-pc would be fine but even my laptops have 5 or more systems installed.
You don't have to use the auto-generated grub.cfg. You can write and
maintain your own one manually.
