I've checked out 10 times the copy-sequence but my
fcopy of menu.lst comes after the default GRUB-Class.
I have deactivated the fcopy in the grub-class of FAI
but then I've got a kernelpanic :-(

Is there any other script/class that works after all
classes ? In /usr/local/share/fai I haven't found any
entry.
