I have a machine with both Linux and Windows installed on the hard
drive. Linux runs on the bare metal and I occasionally run the Windows
install in a VM using KVM pointed at /dev/sda. However if I'm not quick
enough, or Windows decides to reboot when I'm not around to notice, the
grub running under KVM will decide to boot Linux and much confusion
ensues.
I couldn't find an easy way to test what the running environment was, so
I knocked up a simple testpci command that allows me to test for the
existence of a PCI device and change the default boot option based on
that. I have:
| if testpci 8086:1237; then
| set default="2"
| fi
in my grub.cfg to correctly select the Windows partition if the qemu
provided host bridge is present.
