The tools and scripts that build grub.cfg have become far better than they were when, for example, Ubuntu 9.10 was released and they didn't recognize a Fedora initrd (if you were dual-booting Fedora and Ubuntu) and sometimes misidentified the "/" and "/boot" partitions. Since then many bugs have been squashed, many refinements made, and features added (like having "/boot" on a v1.x metadata mdraid array or a partitioned mdraid array). Fedora's always had very good documentation so we'll eventually have something good on fp.o. I prefer grub1 though because if you want to customize grub.cfg beyond what grub2 upstream thinks that you can/should, you have to edit the scripts in "/etc/grub.d/" - and that's more trouble than it's really worth. -- test mailing list test@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/test
