11 I don't need a freakin' whole OS to boot linux, and having a
12 configuration that is so convoluted that it *has to* be generated by
13 running a set of scripts makes no sense at all. I thought the days of m4

16 I am sure grub2 can be made to work, but for a piece of software as
17 vital as a boot loader, that level of complexity in my opinion is
18 totally unreasonable and impossible to justify.
