I discovered this bug because pm-hibernate was not working as it uses grubby.

Comment 1 Mads Kiilerich 2011-12-08 19:11:23 UTC

Grubby can operate on multiple kinds of boot loader configuration files. Like /sbin/new-kernel-pkg you will have to specify --grub2 -c /etc/grub2.cfg if you want that particular configuration file. Otherwise you will get the default.

Comment 2 Stefano Cavallari 2011-12-09 09:37:53 UTC

Maybe the bug should be filed elsewhere, but still I don't understand what is the correct method in Fedora to understand the current bootloader.
Script /usr/lib64/pm-utils/sleep.d/01grub calls grubby with no explicit configuration file to modify.

Maybe the solution is to conflict grub2 vs grub2-efi, as installing both confuses grubby (or who assumes grubby is automagic enough).

Feel free to move this bug to pm-utils or whatever package it belongs.

Comment 3 Mads Kiilerich 2011-12-09 10:58:25 UTC

The core issue of pm-utils / grub2 integration is tracked on bug 732058.
