Eelco Dolstra d659488209 * Use the regular GRUB menu builder for Amazon. There are two issues:
we want to generate the GRUB menu without actually installing GRUB
  (because Amazon supplies its own pv-grub), and each menu entry
  requires "root (hd0)".  For the first, allow boot.loader.grub.device
  to be set to "nodev" to indicate that the GRUB menu should be
  generated without installing GRUB.  For the second, add an option
  boot.loader.grub.extraPerEntryConfig to allow commands to be added
  to each GRUB menu entry (in this case, "root (hd0)").
