Firstly, thanx for all your time and effort! Grub works perfectly and is an ideal tool for me as I believe for millions of other admins too. Lately I have come accross configuring grub 2 (namely 1.98) and adding more systems. I have to say, I was discouraged, displeased and diseverything after I have found what a change in configuring you have done. I think changing the way of configuring some application so much is kind of completely non-systemic. I seriously doubt you had no other option but change it so much. It is now harder to configure, time-wasting and misleading to many who have learned the old configuration. While I am no-one in the open-source world of software, I still believe you have to know the oppinion of people who use your product. Please change the configuration back! Thank you Petr Topiarz sys-admin and BSDMag contributor
