Can you please wait until I applied my patches? There are two big patched I'd like to apply this week. > But I have one question: Which is better, GRUB 2 or GRUB? Since the code > base is quite different, I think the distinction between GRUB and GRUB > 2 is a good thing, although I prefer GRUB to GRUB 2 as a software name. Both are fine for me. But the best thing is to make sure people will not get confused, with the reasoning GRUB 2 would be better. Personally I do like GRUB better because is looks nicer. > For now, I call it sometimes GRUB 2, and sometimes just GRUB.
