Allright, since I haven't heard any further complaints regarding the 
usage of the 'which' command, here's my proposed script. Please remove 
the UTF-8 crap from the shebang line if it is still there.


2008-04-07  Fabian Greffrath  <address@hidden>

        * util\grub.d\30_os-prober: New script. Use `os-prober' and
        `linux-boot-prober' (if installed) to detect other operating
        systems which are installed on the computer and add them to
        the boot menu.
