I don't want to start some flamewars, but I will simply say that I'm not
quite sure that it is worth the effort now, I mean that GRUB 1.0 is kind
of a dead end (and if Okuji has started to work on PUPA there may be
some good reasons).
I'm not quite convinced that the so-called GRUB shell is the correct way
for the installation, and for the filesystem I wonder if it would not be
better to support a "common one" that is a... tar file or, better, a
POSIX pax one...
