I think I could do this, as the initial implementation in the grub2
packages is also from me.
having no clue about os-proper, that would be appreciated.
But how do you tell extlinux to chainload from
another partition? Do we have to copy the corresponfing boot sector into
/boot/extlinux?
syslinux/extlinux can use chain.c32 to chainload other partitions directly.
well, the current menues are not that good anyway, yet..
In my opinion, native kernels (i.e. Debian Linux or kfreebsd kernels)
should appear in the top level menu. Then there should be sub menus for
Utilities (i.e. memtest86, invaders, hdt, ...), Images (everything of
.iso or .img type) and Other OSes (based on os-prober output). But
that's details...
...and belongs to syslinux-themes-debian entirely ;)
