Those are just the lines in the file that go back farther than the upgrade to Fedora 32? If the grubby has a fatal error, but grub2-mkconfig works, why doesn't the process automatically call mkconfig. Just had noticed on the 5 fedora machines I have at home, sometimes a kernel upgrade results in the new kernel being active on next boot, but other times not. Have gotten in the habit of just running mkconfig after a dnf upgrade that shows a new kernel. But if one doesn't watch the reboot, or check which kernel is actually loaded, they could be running an older kernel than what they think? > > I'd use "dnf history" to find if a transaction occurred on 9/3/2020.
