Customizable fs.lst order

[Seth Goldberg]

Hi,

  In thinking of optimizing the number of disk operations for various 
operating systems deploying grub, the order of filesystems came up as a simple 
way to reduce the amount of processing.  If, for example, GRUB2 is deployed on 
Solaris, and the main use-case is to boot Solaris, there there are really only 
2 filesystems involed -- either UFS (via the ufs1 module) or ZFS.  Currently, 
the fs.lst is sorted alphabetically, so those two filesystems would be the 
last to be probed, wasting time.  Besides hand-editing the filesystem order, 
are there any plans to include an override or setting for "preferred" 
filesystems in a particular GRUB2 deployment?
