Quoting Robert Millan <address@hidden>:
I agree GRUB should be very careful not to destroy potentially valuable data. However, that's not to say FAT install is important. Typically our install doesn't collide or interfere with any filesystem, it's only a few corner cases that do, and IMO we should try to discourage those. But of course, destroying someone's filesystem is not the right way to discourage something :-)
I think installing to the first (or any) sector of a filesystem not known specifically to allow that should at least require --force.
I'm fine with supporting fat32, I just want to use the opportunity to fix some related issues.
