Are these environment variables being *set* from within grub itself, or by an administrator booted into an OS? For persistent storage of environment variables you can simply set the variables with the grub.cfg, or in a separate cfg file which is sourced by the primary grub.cfg (like /boot/grub/custom.cfg). Using a normal text file you can include as many variables as you want, expanding as needed. That's not to say that it will never be useful to have a larger grubenv, but it doesn't sound like it's needed in your case. -- Jordan Uggla (Jordan_U on irc.freenode.net) _______________________________________________ Grub-devel mailing list Grub-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/grub-devel
