I don't think this is possible right now. We would need to have some equivalent of the shell 'eval' builtin. The underlying pieces are present (e.g. grub_script_execute_sourcecode) but aren't exposed in the GRUB scripting interface. If you aren't able to add this extension to GRUB script yourself and propose a patch, I suggest reworking your code in some other form. -- Colin Watson [cjwat...@ubuntu.com] _______________________________________________ Grub-devel mailing list Grub-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/grub-devel
