Thank you for the quick response. I just wanted to clarify a few
things from your response.
Matt, I just want to say it does not help to paste such a wall of text,
I mean to say it makes it rather hard to follow what exactly you mean
and what the essence of your statements are okay.
I mean not to disregard you, but it would make it easier to focus on
what you want if you were to write it a little more condensely or better
formatted :p.
I think personally that a required configuration option to grub-install
would be acceptable and for it to fail without those options, and I
think using a file for configuration would also be the best bet.
I would personally assume that something could be done in the dedicated
/etc/grub.d/ directories that would allow grub-mkconfig to function as
required without changing anything to it?
I understand that MATTLE is a reference to your name but don't you think
it is confusing to a user as to what it means? Of course you could later
remove that.
Am I correct in stating that your patches would only require:
- command line options on each invocation of grub-install to reference a
config file of sorts
- a config file in a dedicated directory that would allow this config to
persist
- a way to generate menu information that does not deviate much from
having custom files in /etc/grub.d/?
Pardon for any intrusion here, I only seek to help and clarify a bit.
Regards.
