Ok, than it can not work with Intel/AMT SOL automatically.

Why not ? Whenever you invoke a run script it is added automatically to
the resulting grub menu.lst respectively pulsar config file.

Without it the feature using our run script in conjunction with
Intel/AMT and switching easily between different test boxes (having
potentially all different I/O ports for serial devices) becomes pointless.

:-) - Don't make things complicated. Just stay close to the original
grub menu.lst - for me works this on a recent Ubuntu 12.04 LTS grub 2
installation:

cat << EOF
menuentry "Genode" {
     insmod ext2
     multiboot /genode/bender
     module /genode/hypervisor
     module /genode/core
     module /genode/config config
     module /genode/init init
     ...
}

and if you just want to see the output of bender :

cat << EOF
menuentry "Genode" {
     insmod ext2
     multiboot /genode/bender
}

Cheers,
