I agree that the documentation is insufficient. Furthermore, there isn't enough out there on google to be helpful yet. My experience with grub2 was not good. I had a menu.lst that beeped and had a serial console configured. I lost both when I switched to grub2. I think this is a serious bug because when you install grub2, it leaves old grub on the system and you're supposed to type some command to switch to grub2 if grub2 is working. Well, I couldn't tell if grub2 was working. I switched to grub2 anyway and fortunately, my machine did boot. But it was an act of faith.
