(Fwd) Re: new manual for GRUB users

Below are some change-suggestions for the new 
user-manual. The first change contains some stylistic 
enhancements (despite I'm not a native speaker,
I think that the it is easier to understand).

The second change is the only solution I found to 
convince my teTeX in texi2pdf'ing the manual 
(I had the same problem with the "old" manual). 
I'm using teTeX 1.0.6-4 (dated Feb, 2000)
on a Caldera eDesktop 2.4 with the texinfo.tex
upgraded to the version 2000-12-11.07. It may be
my ignorance of texinfo, but I got the error included
at the bottom without that change. It seems to me
that texi2pdf cannot handle the nested 
@value{VERSION} inside an @uref.
