Grub

stfu Grub

what always bothered me about grub was that there is always a ugly bunch of text right after you confirm your selection and before the kernel kicks in. I've seen that Ubuntu doesn't have this. They can write "quiet" under their Grub entry in menu.lst and then this text is suppressed. I pried out the patch that supposedly implements this feature and I will test it as soon as i have time (it seemed to have compiled just fine)

I'll keep this page posted

Grub 2.0

Grub 2.0 will be stable enough to use soon-ish and will have nice high resolution and image support. Let's look into that so we have the most awesomest uber-1337 Boot sequence >_< '^^
