Details:
Grub2 can boot with root=UUID but needs an initrd.
Currently it's possible to boot with "root=PARTUUID=" and I'm doing it on my
system.
The only culprit is that 'grub-mkconfig -o', '10_linux' script and
'/etc/default/grub' does not make the proper input into grub.cfg ;)
Fixing this does not require change in to grub source itself (that part is
already done), it requires change in to grub's configs and scripts only. ;)
I think that this enhancement will be well accepted by the people that are
willing to boot without an initramfs
Thank you!
Best regards:
Kamen Dokov
