I haven't looked at the code for grub2 myself, but most of the people

software engineering, it hasn't earned many fans among those most
concerned with the change as far as I can tell.
Having looked at the code for GRUB(1) in order to figure out how to
properly boot Solaris I can't say that it makes me happy, either.
Is there such a thing as a bootloader that has nice and easy
to read code?
Probably not. Hacks are pretty much part of the job (this is where we
keep our chickens and eggs).
