Ok It seems to me that this is irrelevant at this point as all new 
releases of Ubuntu will use grub2. It's a pain in the ass, but it is 
what is. "Make a change and call it progress" All I want a boot loader 
to do is load the OS I want and the latest kernels and then leave me 
alone. But the developers are doing this for free so who am I to complain!
