I understand that I have to a rebuild a grub.cfg file, but how?
grub2-mkconfig can do it, but how do I modify the boot options?
For example I which to remove the quiet and rhgb options from the
boot command (not at each boot).

From my own Fedora installation instructions:

Edit /etc/default/grub and make the following changes.

   change GRUB_TIMEOUT to 30.
   delete quiet and rhgb from the GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX line.

Run grub2-mkconfig to regenerate the grub config file. Then set
the default grub entry to 0.

   # grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg
   # grub2-set-default 0

I'm not sure why I needed to do the last bit, but found it was necessary
for the latest kernel to be selected by default.

Thank,
It works fine. However, grub2-mkconfig tries to detect the installations
available on the computer and get some wrong results that I need to
correct by editing grub.cfg. This is bizarre. How can I get a better
control under grub2-mkconfig?
In fact it just finds installations which do not exist, probably traces of
fedora14 which was installed before fedora 16.
