• Would be cool if "grub" in the list identified which version (1 v 2 being the big one, but even an internal build number on it would rock
• Will KVM kernels vs Xen kernels get some API distinction, or a section on http://linode.com/kernels
• Finnix boot showed: "System Boot - Rescue Mode -- qemu_linode_boot: failed to get pid"
• Is there a way to identify KVM vs Xen in the Manager/API? Not a huge deal now, but as folks transition I suspect that'll become very important, especially for folks using API to deploy/configure

• Grub versions: We are on it -- the text will be updated to something like Grub 2.0.0 linode 1. The post-beta hope is to gladly handle GrubV1 (menu.lst) and V2 (grub.cfg) guests via Grub2.
• Kernel Flags: There is an ISKVM flag that we are hiding for now (akin to the current ISXEN flag).
• Finnix boot showed: This is a debug notice that should have been redacted before the release, nothing to worry about.
• Identify KVM vs Xen: There is no direct exposure of this status. You can indirectly identify this through the Manager Configuration Panel (/dev/sda vs /dev/xvda)

• It looks like /sys/hypervisor/type is exposed on Xen but not KVM. No idea how hard this is to change, but would be very helpful
• My KVM Linode is still getting/using hvc0 rather than ttyS0, and the Linode kernel cmdline is still setting console=hvc0
• Just realized there's not a way at all (that I can find) to get a kernel ID for creating a config profile via the API, besides making one in the manager and then reading the value via the API.
• It looks like "grub" in the list is grub-legacy, but as soon as I pick an option at the grub prompt, I lose console and everything goes technically black. I'm working on some testing to rule out a failure on my end
