Either by allowing ${grub.arg.XXX} (not sure if current grammar accepts
it) or by adding getarg command, something like
getarg --name debug --set debug
You do not control what arguments grub gets - end use (admin) controls
it. You cannot force end user to actually strictly comply with what you
expect. As example, grub.cfg you recently submitted has
if [ -n "hddev" ]
without initializing it first. So administrator setting this variable
will unintentionally change behavior of script.
