Javier Martinez Canillas 2019-07-04 09:25:11 UTC Doc Text Cause: On installation Anaconda was using the index of the first entry as default instead of using the entry ID.

Consequence: Adding a new boot entry that was sorted before the default entry would become the default since this was set to the first index.

Fix: On installation Anaconda uses the entry ID to set the default entry.

Result: The default entry is always the default, even if boot entries are added that are sorted before the default entry.

.The RHEL 8 installation program now uses the entry ID to set the default boot entry

Previously, the RHEL 8 installation program used the index of the first boot entry as the default, instead of using the entry ID. As a consequence, adding a new boot entry became the default, as it was sorted first and set to the first index. With this update, the installation program uses the entry ID to set the default boot entry, and as a result, the default entry is not changed, even if boot entries are added and sorted before the default.
