Or you could read /boot/grub/menu.lst, particularly if it has newer write and
access times. What it could do is take whatever there was and add what it would
normally write out as only entries as the first entries. Then, the user could
later edit away the clutter, rather than having to combinge, merge, whatever.

description: 
The bootloader installer should preserve old settings rather than blindly
overwriting.  I have been testing several Linux distributions recently, and each
time I install one I have to reset the bootloader so it has the others in it.

I realize I could install the bootloader on the partition, or on a floppy, but
when installing to the MBR it should "play nice."

This is Mandrake Linux 9.1 beta 3.
