Hi.

update-grub should optionally copy the background image to /boot/grub, e.g. via 
some option
in /etc/default/grub.

I know this was once in place and removed later, but it's necessary for systems 
where during
grub running, that filesystem with the background image is not available.

This may e.g. include remotely mounted filesystems, or encrypted filesystems, 
where you
boot from an unencrypted medium.


I'd suggest that (if auto detection, whether the image will be available during 
grub running,
is not possible) the default should be as now, i.e. not copying the image but 
referencing it
directly.


Cheers,
Chris.
