The only known issue I'm aware of is that Fedora 33 GRUB cannot boot Fedora 32 or RHEL 8 because the bootloader spec implementation changed and it no longer supports variables inside of file snippets. (Obviously, I'm ignoring the fact that RHEL 8 doesn't support Btrfs normally...) -- 真実はいつも一つ！/ Always, there's only one truth! _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to devel-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/devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
