Yes, it is :) I'm not the person (nor this is the place) to answer about that, but note that my proposal for update-grub2 doesn't keep state from former config files. That's a very awkward (and as you already found out, very error-prone) that I wouldn't recommend having at all. In my proposed framework, if you want to customise the configuration you have to do it at the source (in /etc/update-grub.d or whatever it'll be called). -- Robert Millan My spam trap is [EMAIL PROTECTED] Note: this address is only intended for spam harvesters.
