What are your thoughts about this idea?Can't grub2 merge menu.lst files from all grub2-readable partitions and generate a menu dynamically? I dont know, but does this require grub2 to load *all* filesystem modules on boot-up?
That's quite similar to how Super Grub Disk works when you try to boot an existing linux and it seeks for all the menu.lst. I am talking about changing the boot world. Having an unique boot partition might make things much simpler. Although I also think that if you loose this partition you are in trouble so there should be a backup of this partiton somewhere on the root partitions. :) adrian15
