BLS means that the grub menu's built from "/boot/loader/entries/*" instead of from a monolithic "/boor/grub2/grub.cfg". I had to use "grub2-switch-to-blscfg" for the switch to be made, for a new install using dnf instead of anaconda. The latter might set up BLS by default (does anyone know?). _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://getfedora.org/code-of-conduct.html List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
