Personally I do not like glue code at all.

Right... I think it is easy to implement this feature, and agree it might be useful in the cases you described. I wonder how the other developers think about including such feature. -- Marco _______________________________________________ Grub-devel mailing list Grub-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/grub-devel
