The other place you can change the parameters is in /etc/default/grub . Whenever grub2-mkconfig is run it uses the parameters specified there. But we don't run grub2-mkconfig on kernel installs - we use grubby to edit grub.cfg directly - so changes in /etc/default/grub won't do anything unless you then call grub2-mkconfig yourself to re-generate the config. I'd probably edit it in both places, just so that if you have call to run grub2-mkconfig for any reason in future, you don't lose the change. -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Twitter: AdamW_Fedora | XMPP: adamw AT happyassassin . net http://www.happyassassin.net -- test mailing list test@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/test
