At the moment, this is a recipe for GRUB becoming unusable, as the interface between the core image and grub.cfg is not yet stable. As such, I expect that the Ubuntu package will be changing to make this harder to do by accident. -- Colin Watson [cjwat...@ubuntu.com] _______________________________________________ Grub-devel mailing list Grub-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/grub-devel
