What is your end goal? The easiest way to initialize a variable from a file is to have that file be a source-able grub script, for instance a file containing only 'my_variable=foo' could be loaded by grub using 'source /path/to/file.cfg' and after sourcing the file $my_variable would be initialized to 'foo'. -- Jordan Uggla (Jordan_U on irc.freenode.net) _______________________________________________ Help-grub mailing list [email protected] https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/help-grub
