If you're interested, I can detail a history for you, and explain why GRUB 1 was discontinued and why the whole thing was restructured in detail. I can't right now, as I am about to get on a conference call, but I can certainly do so later tonight or tomorrow if you want.
What I would prefer is a detailed yet simple 'How-To' aimed at the average user rather than the hacker (in other words, don't assume I can read code/scripts and understand all or even some of what is happening) or write my own scripts, etc...
Also, I'd prefer this How-To be aimed at current users of GRUB Legacy, meaning, 'This is how Legacy did it, but now GRUB2 does it this way, and for this reason'...
And last, a lot of examples of comparisons of GRUB-Legacy/GRUB2 config files for different types of systems (obviously, these should include all of the most common systems, then more esoteric ones can be added by those using them)...
