It won't take much time to add grub2 support to AIF from Archboot, if I can convert the DIALOG command to the corresponding lib-ui ones. But right now grub2 is undergoing some changes (upstream) with the recent release of 2.00~beta0 and I am hacking Archboot to make the corresponding changes since the install process is also changing slightly. I guess once grub2 is stabilized, gpt+grub2+uefi support can be added to aif as a whole, or maybe with the larger process of actually merging Archboot's setup script (which is far better than AIF in the number of newer features/technologies it supports). So whose with me on merging the setup script, instead of just grub2/gpt inclusion? Regards. Keshav
