Description of problem: After updating several times, I got three kernel versions installed. The grub menu is OK, but when I select the latest kernel to boot, the echo message still says I am booting the oldest kernel. This is false info, as the correct kernel is booted. I found it only a bit disturbing. Copy and paste error when updating grub conf upon installation of a new kernel? Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): grub2-1.99-10.fc16.x86_64 How reproducible: Always. The mistake is encoded into /etc/grub2.conf, see below (note that I cut some irrelevant info, places noted by <cut...>): ### BEGIN /etc/grub.d/10_linux ### menuentry 'Fedora (3.1.0-0.rc10.git0.1.fc16.x86_64)' --class fedora --class gnu-linux --class gnu --class os { <cut...> echo 'Loading Fedora (3.1.0-0.rc8.git0.1.fc16.x86_64)' linux /vmlinuz-3.1.0-0.rc10.git0.1.fc16.x86_64 <cut...> echo 'Loading initial ramdisk ...' initrd /initramfs-3.1.0-0.rc10.git0.1.fc16.x86_64.img } menuentry 'Fedora (3.1.0-0.rc9.git0.0.fc16.x86_64)' --class fedora --class gnu-linux --class gnu --class os { <cut...> echo 'Loading Fedora (3.1.0-0.rc8.git0.1.fc16.x86_64)' linux /vmlinuz-3.1.0-0.rc9.git0.0.fc16.x86_64<cut...> <cut...> echo 'Loading initial ramdisk ...' initrd /initramfs-3.1.0-0.rc9.git0.0.fc16.x86_64.img } menuentry 'Fedora (3.1.0-0.rc8.git0.1.fc16.x86_64)' --class fedora --class gnu-linux --class gnu --class os { <cut...> echo 'Loading Fedora (3.1.0-0.rc8.git0.1.fc16.x86_64)' linux /vmlinuz-3.1.0-0.rc8.git0.1.fc16.x86_64<cut...> <cut...> echo 'Loading initial ramdisk ...' initrd /initramfs-3.1.0-0.rc8.git0.1.fc16.x86_64.img } Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install several kernel updates 2. Just boot the latest one (default) 3. Actual results: Booting Fedora (3.1.0-0.rc10.git0.1.fc16.x86_64), but the screen says Loading Fedora (3.1.0-0.rc8.git0.1.fc16.x86_64) Expected results: The echo prints the correct version Additional info:
