What I mean here is that after clean install of Fedora (17/18) or after running grub2-mkconfig there are only two "top level" items in grub menu: 1. Fedora 2. Advanced options for Fedora I really like to have only those two items, but every kernel installation adds new items to the menu related to new kernels. Is it a bug or is it just some inconsistency? Why grub2-mkconfig makes order again but simple yum upgrade/distro-sync messes things? How can I fix permanently?because yum updates are using grubby as all the years before and i am thankful because i hate the "advenced options" menu and grub2-mkconfig is buggy like hell: try to set a grub-password on a remote machine and be happy that it requests a password even on a untouched boot because grub2-mkconfig is missing the "--unrestricted" in the grub-config Thanks, it explains why shit happens but I think it should be patched or configured somewhere. It's user's choice how he wants his boot menu to be organized. I prefer to have only the latest kernel on the list especially in multi boot environment where each OS adds few cents to the menu. Then I have this advanced submenu in case of special boot requirements with more installed and kept for safety kernels. I totally don't know about setting up and using grub password because this kid of security method is IMHO outdated comparing to disk encryption. Mateusz Marzantowicz |
