This really is the wrong list for your question - this list is for use
of rpm and rpmbuild, etc.

Distribution specific questions should go to those lists not here.  I'll
try to point you in the right direction.

There is a python library called booty that we use for boot loader

You might want to try kickstart-list or a RHEL based list with more

The grub conf lives in /boot/grub/grub.conf with a symlink to /etc/
