I only have got one life and no time to read this. What are the reasons
not to edit grub.cfg?

I can post you my grub.cfg and you may tell me what files I have to
edit, in what way, to get exactly the grub.cfg I wish to have ;)?

My grub.cfg does what I want, reading several mailing lists, most people
accept, what they don't want and on Debian users mailing list, I'm not
the only one who edit grub.cfg.

I only can help editing grub.cfg! I don't know any argument not to edit
this file.

How do you edit kernel configurations?

A lot of people run echo by a script or use an editor, e.g.

echo "CONFIG_RT_GROUP_SCHED=n" >> .config

Do you always run an application and edit things with an app?

Linux shouldn't become like Windows. It's a pity that now, when audio
becomes better and better the DEs and basic stuff becomes more worse
than Windows.

2 Cents,

Ralf
