One more thing to make Linux and Solaris play nicely together

Solaris x86 will now use GRUB as the bootloader. One of the reasons for 
this was specifically to make life easier for us linux users to dual 
boot Linux and Solaris. This will remove the ugly little workaround you 
currently have to employ (where Solaris by default installs it own 
bootloader, requiring you to reinstall GRUB again after).
