(sorry there is a mistake in the previous comment: I spoke about the option 'GRUB_SAVEDEFAULT=true' while it should be 'GRUB_DEFAULT=saved')
=> summary of the bug:
'set default=0' is written in grub.cfg instead of 'set default="${saved_entry}"'
despite the fact that "GRUB_DEFAULT=saved" is in /etc/default/grub
*** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 768106 *** |
Description of problem: In /etc/default/grub, I have: 'GRUB_SAVEDEFAULT=true' As a result in /boot/grub2/grub.cfg I have the line 'set default="${saved_entry}"'. But after a kernel update (with yum), that line is modified to 'set default="0"' Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): (Fedora 16 up to date) How reproducible: Yes Steps to Reproduce: 1. When a kernel update is available, apply the update (this problem has happened several times with previous kernel updates) 2. 3. Actual results: In /boot/grub2/grub.cfg, the line: set default="${saved_entry}" is modified to: set default="0" Expected results: Since 'GRUB_SAVEDEFAULT=true' is present in /etc/default/grub, 'set default="${saved_entry}"' should remain present in /boot/grub2/grub.cfg Moreover, it is was happened when I regenerate /boot/grub2/grub.cfg with the command: grub2-config -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg Additional info: File etc/default/grub: GRUB_TIMEOUT=5 GRUB_DISTRIBUTOR="$(sed 's, release .*$,,g' /etc/system-release)" GRUB_DEFAULT=saved GRUB_SAVEDEFAULT=true # GRUB_TERMINAL="serial console" # GRUB_SERIAL_COMMAND="serial --unit=0 --speed=9600" GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="quiet rhgb \# video=SVIDEO-1:d" GRUB_DISABLE_RECOVERY="true"
