Description Peter Backes 2012-02-24 22:03:03 UTC

Description of problem:
Defaults are located at /etc/default/grub, which is a debianism. The correct location on fedora should be /etc/sysconfig/grub

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
grub2-1.99-13.fc16.i686

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. install grub2
  
Actual results:
defaults stored in /etc/default/grub

Expected results:
defaults stored in /etc/sysconfig/grub

Comment 1 Sergio Basto 2012-04-17 00:49:19 UTC

may instead do a symbol link of grub,  symbol link of all dir, 
 /etc/default/ to /etc/sysconfig/


mv /etc/default/* /etc/sysconfig/
rmdir /etc/default/
ln -s /etc/sysconfig/ /etc/default/

Comment 2 Mads Kiilerich 2012-04-17 21:53:49 UTC

Yes, /etc/default is an ugly debianism, but that is what upstream uses.

/etc/sysconfig might have the nice property of being a fedoraism, but it is not more pretty than /etc/default.
