I am quite technical and in general prefer hacking text files rather than GUI editors.
But I find Grub scary. Partly that I know that if I get it wrong I have a nasty unbooting machine (does grup mean Get wRong and machins is UnBootable). If find the file created by debian/ ubuntu really hard to understand. I am not sure whether the issue is - the file is complicated per se - the version created by the installer is too general/ complex I am not sure what the answer is but - from my techy perspective I would like to take the file apart and understand/ simplify it (on a machine that doesnt matter too much if I loose it for a day!) - from a more general perspective some form of GUI would be a good idea. A parallel - the oreilly book on apache security suggests that you throw away the all singing / dancing config generated by whatever distribution you have and construct one you understand. -- Andrew Black London -- [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.kubuntu.org/UKTeam/
