Bug#561441: grub-common: creating a new target like "Recovery" not working

[Ritesh Raj Sarraf]

Package: grub-common
Version: 1.98~20091210-1
Severity: minor


Hi,

In Grub2, I have been trying to create a new target "Debug Mode", just
like the "Recovery Mode". It doesn't seem to be generated for the
grub.cfg file.

I have attached the changed files I had done to make the same.
Problem is that the "Debug Mode" options that I want, were never getting
appended.

Appreciate if you can point where I am doing wrong. You could also add a
similar example file into /usr/share/doc/


Regards,
Ritesh
