Hi, First post to this list. I've offered various observations on devel@ and Fedora Forums on: general boot behavior, with emphasis on making dual and triple booting work on Macs; issues surrounding MBR and GPT partitioning schemes; and the lunatic asylum of (U)EFI, CSM-BIOS and BIOS mode booting of hardware. I see the bug is assigned, but no activity since Nov 2011. If agreeable, I can take on an edit for F16 which would also carry over to F17. The fix is very straightforward. As described in the bug, primarily it's removal of the bulk of existing text, because the current text is almost entirely obsoleted by GRUB2. And then documenting the proper command for the included GRUB2 script that causes the regeneration of a new grub.cfg. I'd expect the section to be cut in size and complexity by 80%, accounting for a mention of perhaps three optional custom configurations that admins may find useful. And probably also include some note to the effect that direct editing of the grub.cfg is not recommended by upstream, therefore advanced users who do edit the file are advised grub.cfg can be overwritten without notice, and are better off making their custom inclusions in the proper /etc/grub.d files, and then executing the regeneration script. Basically, start simple and general purpose, and then get to a few specific examples. And leave the rest to upstream documentation. A bit more complicated right now is bug 750108. It might be best to remove the current material, and reference Anaconda's option to configure this at install time as the absolute easiest way to deal with it. And reference upstream's documentation until someone gets around to writing a reasonable step by step for doing it post-install. Better than than obsolete material that won't work.
