True in theory, but not in practice. Legacy grub will go away |
| 25 |
eventually. If we have some grub-legacy and some grub2 installs, we have |
| 26 |
to support (document, test, take out to dinner occasionally) both, which |
| 27 |
is probably going to be more effort than just moving to grub2 after I |
| 28 |
figure out how it works. |

Either way is going to require a non-zero amount of work, while zero is |
| 31 |
the amount of work I would prefer to do. |
