[For anyone who finds this and has an itch to explore the limbo between non-existent and non-perfect]: There used to be a grub wiki: grub.enbug.org. The link is now dead. It can however still be found in the webarchive: https://web.archive.org/web/20100819173835/http://grub.enbug.org/FrontPage -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
