Hey Alexey!

 AV> Good ${greeting_time}, Maurice!

Somebody *really* needs to do something about the above.  ;-)

 AV> You could try syslinux instead - it's not that bloated as grub is.

That is even more of a pain in the ass building then grub is on a pure 64-bit
system.  Seems to me the last time I looked it wanted nasm which I currently
don't have onboard.  Also it whined about some other stuff I don't recall at
the moment, but offhand extreme DOS-think comes to mind.  :::shudder:::

Good thing I still have a working lilo.  Yeah grub is pretty bloated.  'ls -al
/sbin/lilo' and 'ldd /sbin/lilo' follows;

-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 171192 Jan  7 19:27 /sbin/lilo

 linux-vdso.so.1 (0x00007fff3abf1000)
 libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0x00007fb91b833000)
 /lib/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (0x00007fb91bba2000)

Lean and mean and linked to the onboard 64-bit libs.  Works for me.

Life is good,
Maurice
