 pygrub runs in the dom0 and looks into the domU file system.  This

   pygrub doesn't seem to work to load Linux images under NetBSD dom0,
   and is inherently less secure than pvgrub due to running inside dom0. For both these
   reasons, pygrub should not be used, and is only still present so that
   historical DomU images using it still work.
   
   As of 2014, pygrub seems to be of mostly historical
   interest. New DomUs should use pvgrub.
