btw, I made a package that takes GRUB components from the installed
grub package and (using the mkbimage script by Thierry Laronde) builds
a floppy image and an elTorito enabled iso9660 image with them.

currently, the package fails to build on both GNU and GNU/Linux because
of different errors in mkbimage. If someone wants to hack it, please
take it from:

http://khazad.dyndns.org/packages/grub-disk

if you fix it, you're welcome to maintain it in the archive. otherwise
send me patches. Fixes on mkbimage should be forwarded to Thierry Laronde
<tlaronde@polynum.org>, the GRUB BTS entry and me.

thanks,
