	Hello,

  This feature is important to me, isn't new (I've propsed help 2 years
ago, and submitted a patch one month ago as requested), and won't be
available in Grub2 soon (no network support now !)... My patch added a
new package, not modifying current ones..
  Too bad for other Debian users :-(
