I'm using up-to-date Fedora 16 x86_64 KDE spin (from fresh install, not upgrade) and recently I've discover, that 'boot to other os' option is missing. I've got proper configured 'grub2' in 'System Settings -> Login Screen', also I've added 'GDUB_DEFAULT=saved' to /etc/default/grub, but there's no 'arrow' near 'reboot button'. Anybody tried to solve that issue?

It looks like the upstream code is hardcoding paths which are wrong for Fedora, it can be worked around with symlinks, but we should probably patch the code.
Even better would be if upstream could add it into the cmake configuration. E.g (untested):
find_file( GRUB2_BURG_CONFIGURATION_FILE NAMES grub2.cfg burg.cfg grub.cfg PATHS "/boot/grub2" "/boot/burg" "/boot/grub" "/etc" DOC "Path to grub2 or burg configuration file" NO_DEFAULT_PATH )
set_property( SOURCE ${grub_relatedsources} APPEND PROPERTY COMPILE_DEFINITIONS "GRUB2_BURG_CONFIGURATION_FILE=${GRUB2_BURG_CONFIGURATION_FILE}" )
I don't know why this kind of thing isn't done more often. Short, simple, easy to set from the command line if needed.
If this looks vaguely sane/wanted i can file a bug upstream suggesting this.
