extlinux question

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I am not sure when this started happening, but with "recent" Fedora releases for systems with grub2 bootloaders, an additional "rescue" kernel has been provided. This "rescue" kernel is never updated but remains the same as that provided by anaconda. I assume that it is the kernel that was available at install time. I also assume that the purpose of the "rescue" kernel is to provide a backup capability just in case the updating of kernels has managed to create an unbootable system.

The question: If this is a good option for grub2 based systems, why isn't a good options to have for systems with extlinux bootloaders too?

Just curious.
