#930: add a grub entry to the ext2 image
-------------------------+--------------------------------------------------

for the images that are run under qemu (or any VM), I would like an extra
grub entry that just swaps the order of the 2 console= parameters:
existing: ro vga=0x317 video=vesafb:ypan selinux=0 console=ttyS0,115200
console=tty0
proposed: ro vga=0x317 video=vesafb:ypan selinux=0 console=tty0
console=ttyS0,115200
With the existing, you only see it up to the "transfering control to
/sbin/init" and then everything goes to only the VM console. Flip the 2
and it goes only to qemu's stdout, thus the need for both: to be able to
pick where the output goes after "transfering control to /sbin/init" given
that it will only go to one or the other.
I got mixed results when asking if it could go to both, so a 2nd grub
entry may be the best use of time for now.
