Description

At the moment both the CentOS 6.x and CentOS 7.x bodge up a /boot/grub/menu.lst file for booting with pygrub.

Now that pvgrub is a possibility, these installers should just install GRUB-legacy or GRUB2 as appropriate, create the correct config file, and symlink from either /etc/grub.conf (GRUB-legacy) or /etc/grub2.cfg (GRUB2) so that update of bootloader config happens properly when a kernel is installed.

CentOS 6 (both i686 and x86_64) is now working correctly to install a /boot/grub/grub.conf, with links /etc/grub.conf and /boot/grub/menu.lst that point to it.
