I believe this is intentional, due to the grub -> grub2 switch: I think the option that's expected to be used is 'Create new boot loader configuration'.

Comment 2 Adam Williamson 2011-09-13 01:30:32 UTC

We don't have another blocker review till Friday but we need to decide on blocker status of all uncertain bugs by tomorrow, so can people please vote here?

Comment 3 Adam Williamson 2011-09-13 01:31:58 UTC

I vote -1 blocker -1 nth on this, assuming we fix the key issues in https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=735730 . What's key is that the default option run on upgrade more or less works. We can except this test case for the F16 release. The reason this option does not exist is the grub->grub2 migration, I believe. I suspect the right resolution is actually NOTABUG.

Comment 4 Robert Lightfoot 2011-09-13 19:51:14 UTC

IF the intent is to force users to New Bootloader then greying out update option makes sense to me also.  But as Adam states 735730 "New Bootloader Option" must work.  -1 Block, -1 NTH
