I think this was introduced in F30, and it became the default in F31. Called snippets. It is no longer necessary to update the grub.cfg file with snippets enabled, though it is OK to do so. > > And even though I only have 3 kernels installed (all 5.5.x series) > there were left over files (vmlinuz, System.map, initramfs, & config) > for older kernels so something wasn't cleaning them up correctly on > update. Assuming you are using efi, and if you go into /boot/efi/EFI/fedora and run the command grub2-mkconfig -o grub.cfg that should fix your issue with kernels in the menu. Not sure what is causing the lack of cleanup, as everything updates correctly here on F31. Maybe check /etc/default/grub to ensure options are set the way you want? Perhaps you caught the migration from the old grub2 technique to the snippets technique, and there was cruft left over. Did you save more kernels in the past, /etc/dnf/dnf.conf? _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
