Hi,

I've tested grub2 on a newworld powermac G4 booting a linux kernel; if I
don't use the fake "title" command, ie grub2 calls grub_cmdline_run, it
works. Instead, If I use a cfg file like

title Linux
  linux ...

I get a Decrementer exception. Any clue or suggestion about how to debug
this?

This syntax is not correct anymore.  For the last release the syntax
to specify menu items completely changed.  Of course it is a bug that
incorrect syntax is not handled correctly and I plan to fix that.

This is a known bug.  You could debug it using gdb+grub-emu.  But
better wait until I start working on scripting again, I plan to make
many changes and written down this bug already.
