My experience with grubby being run after kernel installs, when I
have been able to get it to run, is that it does recreate the entire
grub.cfg file. For example, I have been in the situation where the boot
menu had an entry for the latest kernel followed by an group entry for
'Advanced Fedora Options' (or something similar) along with the same
structure for Ubuntu, then after running grubby, the groupings were
removed and all the entries that were listed in the groups were moved to
the top level.
Can't confirm.
These are the steps I've tested with on Fedora 20:
1) In /etc/default/grub I've set
GRUB_DISABLE_SUBMENU=false
2) I've run "grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg" to create the
grub.cfg with submenus.
3) I've saved grub.cfg as ~/grub.cfg.MKCONFIG
4) I've run "yum --enablerepo=rawhide install kernel" to add the kernel
package from Rawhide.
5) I've run "diff -u ~/grub.cfg.MKCONFIG /boot/grub2/grub.cfg" to display
the differences.
What has changed in grub.cfg?
* a new "menuentry" block for the new kernel at the top
* removed trailing whitespace at the end of "linux" lines
* replaced double-quote characters with single-quotes in menuentry blocks
Upon "yum history undo …" only the added menuentry block was removed
again.
Looks like grubby has changed since the last time I used it, it is now
creating sub-entries as well. I'll need to now check if I still get the
same problem on kernel updates where grubby fails with an authorization
failure even though the update process is run under sudo, but when I run
grubby manually under sudo it runs fine.
