Hi,

don't ever modify grub.cfg, neither with nor without puppet. It's not
meant for that.

What I do is use puppet to mess with the powerful scriptlets in
/etc/grub.d (e.g., I rename them to have xen before non-xen kernels and
roll my own modified version of the xen finding scriptlet to correctly
detect my xen config).

HTH,
Felix
