 Boyd, how am I gona know the filesystem UUID of a machine I have
never used? ;-)
~
 Also from their own manual:
~
 http://grub.enbug.org/Manual
~
 UUID entries - Test these first. They are automatically generated by
some grub.d scripts. Sometimes they don't work
~
 Since you mentioned GRUB 2 to which extent can you probe a box using
it? I addition to fs UUID entries it would be great if they had some
way of probing hardware a bit more. Remember that I want to be able to
sit on any x86-based box and be good to go
~
 Thanks
