I finally made an out-of-distro grub install on each of my boxes. All it does is let you pick which distro's grub you want to chainload. This way each distro can do whatever it wants with it's own grub. I add a "return to master bootmenu" to each, and I haven't looked back. Very much worth the trouble, and not really that much trouble to start with.

That does sound a lot nicer. I'll have to remember this when I set up new boxes. Thanks.

This sounds awesome. How does one set up an out-of-distro grub? Google turns up nothing.
