Hi,
In thinking of optimizing the number of disk operations for various
operating systems deploying grub, the order of filesystems came up as a simple
way to reduce the amount of processing. If, for example, GRUB2 is deployed on
Solaris, and the main use-case is to boot Solaris, there there are really only
2 filesystems involed -- either UFS (via the ufs1 module) or ZFS. Currently,
the fs.lst is sorted alphabetically, so those two filesystems would be the
last to be probed, wasting time. Besides hand-editing the filesystem order,
are there any plans to include an override or setting for "preferred"
filesystems in a particular GRUB2 deployment?
