     @bananabob It might look very complicated, but it's organized in a very logical way. The new approach is also more robust than menu.lst.

     I can see that - once I read about it - but there should be a GUI for the less geekie amongst the community

     @bananabob The problem with GUIs is that it's hard to create one that fits in all the desktop environments.

     @bananabob But DEs, on the other hand, are free to provide GRUB configuration tools of their own. KDE has such a GUI tool.
