NOTE
If I put a slash in front of etc/default/grub I get a 404 when I preview.
Is it possible to pass coordinates to yad so the windows don't open in the center all the time? it doesn't matter with snapshot/installer but I've been messing about with Anthony's Yad Ducky script doing a prototype menuing system but I'd like the screens to open at the bottom right corner as in this snapshot.

Use standard X Window geometry notation for placing dialog. When this option is
used, width, height, mouse and center options are ignored.
@fsr
Is there a way to lock the focus into the snapshot screen when the snapshot is taking place to prevent the user doing other things.

I started doing that but remembering to change it back after the snapshot was a hastle. It's much better to change the grub file when your running the live CD or during the install when you set the partition label which I've been doing for a few weeks and it works very well having the partition label and the grub entry identical.For grub, it's just a matter of editing the files on the running CD before you make the snapshot. (Or learning about and messing with lsb-release.)
