Not on my Fedora 17 box.  I've let it does its updating automatically
("yum update" on the command line, either after "su -" to become root,
or as "sudo yum update").  And I have one GRUB menu without any
submenus.

It lists each kernel like this:

  Fedora (newest kernel)
  Fedora (next newest kernel)
  Fedora (even older kernel)
  Fedora (oldest kernel)

Though it has actual kernel version numbers, rather than my descriptive
test, because I don't feel like like hand copying strings of numbers, at
the moment).

I don't recall doing anything special to achieve that.  It's the 64 bit
install run from a live disk.

To be honest, this is how I prefer it to appear.

Hi Tim,
I do the same thing whereby it doesn't matter whether I run sudo yum upgrade or sudo smart upgrade the results are the same, the output in menu.cfg is as I described. It seems that the structure I have is the standard structure built by grub2-mkconfig, which I have to run manually after a kernel upgrade, because on my system, in an out of the box install of F17, grubby which is what the kernel upgrade tries to run to update grub2, does not run under sudo, I get access denied.

regards,
Steve
