It's actually both; the intention is that you can install it within a domU so that it always matches the grub.cfg there, and also have a copy in dom0 to replace the old PV-GRUB. (In either case it will run in the domU context.) The configuration code is still evolving, though, so some assembly is still required. Mind if I park this bug temporarily until the configuration is a bit more established? -- Colin Watson [cjwat...@debian.org] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
