There used to be a tool called "grub-customizer". I started using it a
year or so ago. A few months back it seemed to go down the tubes. It
added support for burg and basically turned into a random-config-generator.

What I'm building is a replacement for it, something more general and
somewhat simpler. Currently it only supports grub-2 to a limited
extent, it doesn't yet allow specification of most of the available
parameters, but it does generate a working config which is more than I
can say for grub-customizer when I uninstalled it. Eventually it's
likely to support grub-legacy and maybe lilo and whatever, there's no
conceptual reason that can't be done. It just flat ignores whatever
happens to be in /etc/grub.d/ and builds a /boot/grub/grub.cfg file from
your specifications; it saves the abstracted information about the boot
setup in an xml file in root so you don't have to specify everything
every time. I've been using it for a couple months now and it does the
job; when you run it, it brings up a list of all your bootable
partitions, and lets you walk through a few menus to specify your boot
config. Those who are happy dicking around with /etc/grub.d/ probably
wouldn't like it at all, but it does leave /etc/grub.d/ in whatever
shambles it was in before it was used.
