The current issue on 5.19.12 made it necessary for some users to change
their kernel on boot to avoid 5.19.12 until the update to 5.19.13 was
pushed to stable. Obviously, the option to easily boot recent kernels
can be necessary in several circumstances, especially for non-advanced
users it has proven to be very helpful on ask.fp to achieve that with
two easily-to-describe clicks.
However, on ask.fp, a user mentioned that the grub menu is no longer
enabled by default on single boot systems so that changing the kernel is
no longer easily possible, and put forward
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/HiddenGrubMenu as evidence for
this argument. Yet, the article indicates that the argument is not fully
correct and even with single boot installations, SHIFT can be used to
get into the grub menu. Generally, my experience with non-advanced users
on ask.fp and in general does not correspond to the arguments in the
article. However, on all my Workstation and KDE/lxqt spin installations
(one originally installed before F29, others between F33 & F36), this
article does not apply at all, and by default, I can choose between the
recent three kernels for 5 seconds in the grub menu on all single boot
systems, unless I change the grub config myself.
So first of all, does the article currently apply to any edition? If
not, we might change the content to avoid further confusion...
Regards,
Chris
