In short, this patch adds:
- ``showdefault'' command, which can be used both
from the boot time shell and from the command line
interface on your running system. This command will
print on the screen the default being currently saved
in the boot area.
- ``savedefault'' is modified to:
- accept one more parameter at the boot time
shell. If no parameter is specified, savedefault
will behave in the standard way. If one parameter
is specified and this parameter is a number, like
in ``savedefault 3'', grub is told to remember
to boot the entry number 3 instead of the current
one.
- accept two more parameters at the command line
interface when run from your command prompt.
The first parameter must be the entry we want
grub to boot on the next reboot. The second parameter
is the name of the stage2 image used to boot. If
no image is specified, ``savedefault'' will try to
figure it out by itself, so, no need to worry about
it on most installations.
