Yeah alright.
I'm not willing to move around my partitions anymore, so I'll just deal with booting it from flash.
And I've got a systemrescuecd flash drive, with a script that restores grub to /dev/sda for me. :p

Why not? It's the only other distro I've managed to install without a CD drive, and I kinda liked it too.
