Hi, from my point of you for you is the easiest way to add new or edit section (if this is your purpose) use bootloader API for initialize underlaying library (juhliarik knows details as he now rewrite it for 11.2 but I think that sufficient is Initialize library from BootCommon, also Read from Bootloader do it) and then use Bootloader_API for direct communication with underlying library perl-Bootloader which interface is documented here - http://en.opensuse.org/YaST/Bootloader_API Yast2-bootloader still contain few not intuitive parts which is hard to understand (even for developer of this module). For you is interesting methods get/setSections and final writeSettings. Rest of methods is used to initialize library or global section of bootloader configuration so it is not interesting for you.
