I actually did an strace with the -f option to try and see what it is doing, but in some places it is reading the order by name, but then later reverses it, but it is sorting by just the first digit. Did find one message that talked about the sort not working with the german language, but tried the solution of putting a LANG=C in front of the grub2-mkconfig and it made no difference? > > -- > Do not condemn the judgment of another because it differs from your > own.
