I have a couple dozen different OS root partitions: back to Fedora 6 (some cases
with both 32-bit and 64-bit variants), back to Ubuntu 7.10, SuSE, Debian testing,
plus that Other OS.  I like to identify the OS by hostname (which I set as
distro+version+wordsize) _and_ kernel.  I also like to decide the order in the
boot menu.  grub2 doesn't do any of that, plus makes it hard for _me_ to do that.
