Actually, from this point of view, Grub2 is a step in the right

That's just an excuse: from my Grub2 prompt, I can list the contents of
just about all my partitions, so obviously there's no hardware issues in
the way to let Grub2 look for target kerne

100% agreement. As much as I hate Apple, they got some of the boot
loader right. Grub2 should follow their lead: build up (most of)

What I still don't get, though, is where to put kernel parameters
in these grub scripts? If I put them in grub.cfg, they'll just get
overwritten the next time update-grub is run ...

Right. Did that, and things seem better now: the other Lenny system on
the other partition was detected. Must dig into the scripts in /etc/
grub.d now. I was used to editin

They may or may not be an os-prober package but when it comes to grub,
os-prober is a script in /etc/grub.d (/etc/grub.d/30_os-prober). If it
is executable, it will add the kernels that it finds to
/boot/grub/grub.cfg when update-grub is run.

Howdie, fellow Debianites!
I've just tried to install Grub2 to my spare Lenny installation. I am
baffled (not to say disappointed) by the results:
1. -- kernel automagic configuration hasn't been copied over from the
legacy menu.lst to the new grub.cfg
2. -- chainloader stanzas from the old men
