Re: [Xen-devel] [PATCH] Guest boot loader support

OK, I've investigated this using my sacrificial FC3 laptop ;-)  I'd not fully 
investigated this before.

Redhat's grub looks for grub.conf and not menu.lst.  Standard grub looks for 
menu.lst.

If the loader is to be flexible for different domU distros, it'd be nice to 
look for both, in one order or the other.

Cheers,
Mark
