Re: Have one of 5 machines that no longer autoboots??

Got it working, but no clue what did it??
Had booted and just got menu list again.
Then went to grub command prompt and echo timeout 
value and nothing showed? So set it to 5, and then did 
exit. 
It then went back to menu, but did the timeout, but then 
it got in some loop? So had to hard reset it.
Then it seemed to boot, but grubenv had saved value as 
0.

Found instructions to reset saved entry, but they didn't 
work, since they were getting menu enter from grub.cfg, 
which no longer has the kernel entries.

Did this to set the grubenv to list the latest kernel.
Don't know if this would always work.

grub2-editenv - set saved_entry=$(ls -1 
/boot/loader/entries/ | tail -n 1 | sed 's/.conf//')

But now grubenv has this as beginning lines.
cat grubenv
# GRUB Environment Block
# WARNING: Do not edit this file by tools other than 
grub-editenv!!!
saved_entry=be4e5629d05040d192af245eeace0de2-5.16.
17-100.fc34.x86_64
boot_success=1
boot_indeterminate=0

Noticed in a number of places it still shows grub- instead 
of the grub2-
Did also notice that sometimes shows boot_success=0 
right after boot, but then it changes to the =1??
