I don't see how adding more files and splitting information between them helps simplify things. You still need a system specific grub.cfg in the EFI directory so you haven't removed anything. And now users who are trying to debug things have more places to look for problems. If you want a consistent way to find the grub.cfg on bios and efi, why not create a symlink in /boot/grub2/ like we already do for grubenv? Actually, we already have symlinks in /etc/grub2.cfg and /etc/grub2-efi.cfg Brian -- Brian C.
