The way I found the most practical in such situation is to have "the main" grub menu which really only is a dispatcher and does 'chainload ...' for any of "second tier" particular OS specific loader installed on boot partitions for every (sub)installation. For Linux this will be a separate for each version copy of grub; not even necessarily the same grub variant. Now any changes by update tools (anaconda, yum, whatever ... ) affect only what is relevant and these tools are not even aware of other stuff. As a side effect you may now have not only a default boot entry in the top menu but also a default entry for every of subinstallations. Much easier to maintain the whole structure as you never have to worry what belongs to what. > https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=124725 > > Please add comments/requests.
