Thanks,
Linux has more bootloaders, distro derivatives (made mutually incompatible for sport), and configuration file formats than you and I both have fingers and toes. I can count Microsoft and Apple total for all device categories on one hand. Grubby is effectively the marriage counselor for this bootloader insane asylum we have on Linux. So I don't actually think it's easier to ditch grubby unless there's political will to pick one bootloader. One configuration file format. And a handful of supported bootable layouts. And also get FESCo a 12 month supply of earplugs to help avoid the ensuing ire of users whose favorite nutty layout is no longer supported. -- Chris Murphy -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct
