There is nothing in /boot/efi/EFI/fedora. This machine was set up on 2018-11-24, so it started life as a Fedora 29 machine. > > Ahh not sure.

I think I would also have to create a symlink from /boot/efi/EFI/fedora/grubenv to /etc/default/grub. I could of course do it manually, but if there is a better procedure, like re-installing some package(s), that would be preferable. > > The purpose of the symlink is so that grubenv commands and usage just > work without respect to firmware type.

It seems like having GRUB_DEFAULT=saved is not currently hurting me. The last upgrade, to 5.0.11-300, properly made that kernel the new default. If GRUB_DEFAULT is commented out, then I think grub will always choose the first item in its menu, which would be fine, because the newest kernel always appears first in the grub menu. Is that why you recommended commenting it out?
