And everything works pretty much the way I would like it to
except that now I have to select the kernel version to boot
else
it boots to the older one.
The grub screen shows them listed in the following order and
defaults to the third line 3.1.0-7.fc16.x86_64 which I
believe
is not what it should do?
3.1.7-1.fc16.x86_64
3.1.7-1.fc16.x86_64 Recovery Mode
3.1.0-7.fc16.x86_64
3.1.0-7.fc16.x86_64 Recovery Mode
Assuming that 3.1.7-1.fc16.x86_64 is the later version how
do I
fix that?
On your grub2.cfg file, check the top (below) and see what it has for
default=...
# DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE
#
# It is automatically generated by grub2-mkconfig using templates
# from /etc/grub.d and settings from /etc/default/grub
#
### BEGIN /etc/grub.d/00_header ###
if [ -s $prefix/grubenv ]; then
load_env
fi
set default="0"
Might be 1 or something else. If so, change it to 0 and you do NOT have
to run the command it says to run. Just editing is enough. Reboot and
test.
I'm stymied, file is different! Perhaps because my installation
was from a "live USB" version?
### BEGIN /etc/grub.d/00_header ###
if [ -s $prefix/grubenv ]; then
load_env
fi
set default="${saved_entry}"
if [ "${prev_saved_entry}" ]; then
set saved_entry="${prev_saved_entry}"
save_env saved_entry
set prev_saved_entry=
save_env prev_saved_entry
set boot_once=true
fi
function savedefault {
if [ -z "${boot_once}" ]; then
saved_entry="${chosen}"
save_env saved_entry
fi
}
Maybe I need to create a new grub2? That would be a science
project!
I've done the last several installs that way but this is a new
problem.

It looks like changing "GRUB_DEFAULT=saved" to "GRUB_DEFAULT=0"
in /etc/default/grub might work but if it doesn't I wont be able
to reboot to repair things, and then what will happen when a new
kernel come along? Problem is my ignorance ...
GRUB_TIMEOUT=15
GRUB_DISTRIBUTOR="Fedora"
GRUB_DEFAULT=saved
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="rd.md=0 rd.lvm=0 rd.dm=0
KEYTABLE=us SYSFONT=latarcyrheb-sun16 rd.luks=0
LANG=en_US.UTF-8"
Any ideas, suggestions?
