You can either populate "/etc/grub.d/40_custom" manually or duplicate "/etc/grub.d/10_linux" and edit it to suit your purpose. For grub1, the only way that I can see doing this automatically/automagically is to replace the single/recovery entries by init3 entries. You could do the same for grub2 by editing 10_linux but grub-pc updates will most probably overwrite your changes (simple ones though). -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
