Then you can try running the kernel package's %posttrans scriptlet commands manually and try to determine which part fails. Here it calls the kernel-install shell script: # rpm -q --scripts kernel|tail -2 posttrans scriptlet (using /bin/sh): /bin/kernel-install add 3.12.5-302.fc20.x86_64 /boot/vmlinuz-3.12.5-302.fc20.x86_64 || exit $? > In /etc/grub2.cfg as in: > > linux /vmlinuz-3.11.10-301.fc20.x86_64 resume=/dev/sda2 > root=/dev/sda3 ro vconsole.font=latarcyrheb-sun16 nomodeset rhgb quiet > > Is this not the right place to have done it? /etc/sysconfig/grub is the file to edit, since grub.cfg may be overwritten (e.g. when running grub2-mkconfig), and if you are not careful when editing the symlink, it will be replaced with a file and disconnected from its target. # file /etc/grub2.cfg /etc/grub2.cfg: symbolic link to `../boot/grub2/grub.cfg' -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
