Any plans to fix this? (I use x86 hardware). Right, this is what happens when a parse error occurs.

But I think there is a configure feature that allows you to rename binaries and scripts before installing. The /boot/grub directory being shared should not course any problems. > 2) It is nice to keep clean /boot/grub2 from modules (put them in > subdir like /boot/grub2/modules) There were some discussions about subdirectories for the kinds of modules.

Do you mean it should be disabled in the menu editor? I do not think it is wise to enable it by default. But you could put it in your grub.cfg. -- Marco _______________________________________________ Grub-devel mailing list Grub-devel@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/grub-devel
