Grub2 generates it own grub.cfg using os-prober, so maybe some work not
needed.
Additional entries to the grub2 menu (anything not found by os-prober)
need adding to /etc/grub.d/40_custom and are incuded when the menu is
re-built. If thay are added to grub.cfg they will be overwritten at
kernel update etc.
I have attached grub.cfg and menu.lst from a vbox installation of mga3
running grub2. It is a lot less noisy than those on my desktop.
For basic grub2 commands see my README.Mageia in the package.
