many, but I can list 3 rocking things:

1. recent/cross-kernel's architecture

2. read config files at bootup (a.k.a don't need to rerun the MBR installer
   at each change of bootup config files)

3. support edition of boot parameters, with completion and many rocking
   things (try to push "e" two times and edit the command line)
   e.g. one diskette with GRUB can boot any operation system because you
   will just enter parameters, and voila.


it rocks.
