I think this approach is sensible, Bruce.  Ideally, I like to see all packages
built, installed and configured within chapter 6, and thinking about this some
more, I reckon we could do without chapter 8 completely.

I think moving Grub to chapter 6 (complete with configuration instructions)
and the kernel too would work just as well as it does now.  The /etc/fstab
page could move to the bootscripts section, as it's obviously of critical
importance to the boot process.

Matt.
