If I try to do this I get an error:
# grub2-editenv - set menu_auto_hide=1
grub2-editenv: error: environment block too small.
What the issue here ?
Perhaps /boot/grub2/grubenv is corrupted and grub2-editenv is not very good at
reporting errors. This happens when the file was accidentally truncated. Does
it have 1024-byte size?
If it does not, back up the file and reinitilize it with
"grub2-editenv - create"
Why it does not contain the `menu_auto_hide=1` by default when running this
command?? :/
Because this how upstream works. From the manual:
COMMANDS
create
Create a blank environment block file.
You took the question too literally, while my whine was more figurative.
Initially, I was going to answer this:
IOW I don't think this is good default and even if this might be
considered good default for upstream (because from upstream POV, the
empty file is sufficient), it is not good default for Fedora IMO. In
Fedora, the output of such (or similar) command should already include
`menu_auto_hide=1`.
But thinking about this more, I think my biggest pet peeve with this
issue is that there is no simple way to reset to Fedora default. Would
the system boot without the `/boot/grub2/grubenv` file? I hope so. So
can I delete it to fix the issue at hand? I can't. Can I recreate the
file? I can't. Can I reinstall some package to fix the issue? I can't. I
don't know how else should I figure that I am supposed to put
`menu_auto_hide=1` somewhere to get the Fedora experience back?
