Just because you have to run extra commands for a different reason doesn't mean it isn't just as irritating. Come to think of it, at least lilo had a good reason to make you run extra commands, grub2 only has idiotic design decisions as a reason. > Also, in grub1, grubby edits "/boot/grub/grub.conf" when a > new kernel is installed so grub1's behavior isn't that different from > grub2's. But it is: /boot/grub/grub.conf is the one and only place where grub config is stored so if you edit it by hand, unless you do something that horribly confuses grubby, you will not have your changes destroyed by grubby. Until /boot/grub/grub.cfg is the one and only place where config information is stored in grub2, it will be inferior to grub (no matter how many millions of loadable modules it comes with :-). -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
