This is a totally useful > function and I would really like to avoid using lilo. redhat's grub has a patch that implements (but doesn't document) the --once option to the savedefault command. Note there is a problem with the "savedefault --once" functionality I think. The default entry and "once only entry" are not independent, and so after a "once only boot" the default entry will be reset to 0. I can't see how that would ever be required (especially if the "once only entry" is also 0). I've modified the patch to make these independent so you don't loose your previous default entry. could this be applied? http://www.pixelbeat.org/patches/grub-0.93-once.diff
