I don't want to start some flamewars, but I will simply say that I'm not quite sure that it is worth the effort now, I mean that GRUB 1.0 is kind of a dead end (and if Okuji has started to work on PUPA there may be some good reasons). I'm not quite convinced that the so-called GRUB shell is the correct way for the installation, and for the filesystem I wonder if it would not be better to support a "common one" that is a... tar file or, better, a POSIX pax one...
