> (But, of course, not all systems are like that, and on systems that aren't, GRUB is crucial: and since distros by and large don't want to support two completely incompatible ways to boot, they all go with GRUB.)

I think that's the other part of why I feel so negative about GRUB - my main working exposure to non-x86 BIOS/UEFI systems are s390x systems, which use zipl. So I don't even get to enjoy the portability!

Anyway, I think that's enough moaning about something people have been kind enough to give me for free.

Yes indeed. I've spent my whole time in this thread announcing a huge pile of working software given to us for nothing and maintained mostly by other people for free whining about it! Seriously, some people are just awful and right now that includes me.
