Are there any plans to load GRUB2's grub.cfg from a hard disk. This would make it editable to the end user. I think it is kind of important for a Multiboot Loader.
bug #96 on our tracker (assigned to me) is about being able to configure the default location for grub.cfg. I'll work on it, once I got USB storage done. which brings me to..
Also is there any status update on GRUB2 booting UHCI?
GRUB2 read disk size and sectors from (QEmu emulated) usb storage devices for the first time this morning. This was just some test on device initialization, but still. My next step is to make it available from grub2 as normal disk, which might happen before saturday evening.
For the time being, that code still profits from qemu's emulation being relaxed in some areas, so it will take some more days to make it ready for general consumption (ie. real hardware).
