While that's not implemented, at the very least Actually, I don't have the old files around, but I faintly remember that the crash/dump files in /sys/fs/pstore were related to systemd. So this seems to be highly necessary. > I'm thinking about error checking in grub-install.

Anyway, good to hear that this might help others, too.
