Ok. I was refering to Robert's email mentioning wraplinux: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/grub-devel/2010-01/msg00046.html I glanced over the code, and it looks like they only add a multiboot header. I did not see any code to access the multiboot information structure (which contains the multiboot command line). Grégoire
