Hi,
seen in http://projects.archlinux.org/?p=installer.git;a=blob_plain;f=setup;hb=HEAD :
# remove default entries by truncating file at our little tag (#-*)
sed -i -e '/#-\*/q'


Shouldn't it be:
sed -i -e '/#-\*/q' $grubmenu 
instead of just:
sed -i -e '/#-\*/q'

?
( $grubmenu == $DESTDIR/boot/grub/menu.lst )


Also, where does the '#-*' tag come from? I can't find any reference to this (no other occurrences in install script).


Thanks,
Dieter
