Hi, I notice an issue with that implementation. For example, if menu_lock=1, how do you unlock it ? Remember that "Unlock the menu" is an menu item as well, so you can't get to it in the first place, unless you also specify text of menu somewhere, or use another variable, for example: set menu_lock=1 set menu_unlock_menu=Unlock the menu Besides, we might need to fine tune auth with scripting, like protecting only some of the commands. -- Bean _______________________________________________ Grub-devel mailing list Grub-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/grub-devel
