Listmates, How do I choose which grub entry will boot the next time the machine is rebooted from the command line? In suse there is a package called 'grubonce' which you issue from the command line giving the grub entry you want to boot next. Example, if your menu.lst looks like: # (0) Arch Linux - The Ferarri of Distros title Arch Linux on SuperSFF root (hd0,7) kernel /boot/vmlinuz26 root=/dev/sda6 ro vga=0x317 initrd /boot/kernel26.img # (1) Arch Linux title Arch Linux Fallback root (hd0,7) kernel /boot/vmlinuz26 root=/dev/sda6 ro initrd /boot/kernel26-fallback.img # (2) Arch Linux LTS title Arch Linux LTS on SuperSFF root (hd0,7) kernel /boot/vmlinuz26-lts root=/dev/sda6 ro vga=0x31a initrd /boot/kernel26-lts.img I could issue: # grubonce 2 and Arch Linux LTS would be booted next. I thought the grubonce package was part of grub, but it isn't. Also, I don't need it for a local machine (obviously), but I need something I can use via ssh. What do we use here? -- David C.
