What I would prefer is a detailed yet simple 'How-To' aimed at the |
| 8 |
average user rather than the hacker (in other words, don't assume I can |
| 9 |
read code/scripts and understand all or even some of what is happening) |
| 10 |
or write my own scripts, etc... |
| 11 |
|
| 12 |
Also, I'd prefer this How-To be aimed at current users of GRUB Legacy, |
| 13 |
meaning, 'This is how Legacy did it, but now GRUB2 does it this way, and |
| 14 |
for this reason'... |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
And last, a lot of examples of comparisons of GRUB-Legacy/GRUB2 config |
| 17 |
files for different types of systems (obviously, these should include |
| 18 |
all of the most common systems, then more esoteric ones can be added by |
| 19 |
those using them)... |
