Is grub2 only designed for "good users"? I'm not. Or at least, Ubuntu update-grub2 script is not. It messes up with the two disks (with drivemap? not sure) in my laptop and overwrote PGP encrypted hard disk. That's the motivation for me to write this patch. Boot sectors are important. You know how to backup is one story. But when to backup is another and even important in this case.
