That solved the more important part of the problem. The grub menu has an entry for the correct, current kernel, and it boots the correct current kernel. Thank-you, Sam.
Just some info on this. The original format of your grub menu, being one line per kernel, was probably coming from grubby. When kernel installs are done, the install process runs grubby by default to build grub.cfg and update the mbr (in a non-efi system) and grubby builds grub.cfg with a line per kernel. I don't like that format so after every kernel install I manually run grub2-mkconfig and grub2-install to get the menu with a single line for the current kernel and and Advanced sub-menu for the other kernels. This implements the same structure for Ubuntu with I boot into as well as Windows 10.

On May 19, I started a thread called "ACPI errors (was: f24 boot fails; need help)". The error messages that I reported there showed up during the boot process as well as in the journalctl log. For a while in June, they showed up during the boot process in a small font. Now they show up in a big font. That's an example of what I'm wanting to display in a small font. This would allow more of the line (and more lines) to fit on the screen. Since they showed up in a small font for a while last month, it must be possible. Here's my /etc/default/grub file: --------------- GRUB_TIMEOUT=10 GRUB_DISTRIBUTOR="$(sed 's, release .*$,,g' /etc/system-release)" GRUB_DEFAULT=saved GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="rd.md=0 rd.lvm=0 rd.dm=0 rd.luks=0 vconsole.keymap=us rhgb quiet nouveau.modeset=0 rd.driver.blacklist=nouveau video=vesa:off modprobe.blacklist=nouveau" #GRUB_DISABLE_RECOVERY="true" GRUB_THEME="/boot/grub2/themes/system/theme.txt" GRUB_DISABLE_SUBMENU=true GRUB_GFXMODE=1920x1080,1600x900,1280x720,1024x576,auto GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD_LINUX=keep --------------- Any ideas? thanks, Bill. _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
