Summary: GRUB_DISABLE_RECOVERY in /etc/default/grub doesn't disable all recoveries Project: GNU GRUB Submitted by: redfast00 Submitted on: Mon 21 Dec 2015 03:58:24 PM GMT Category: Configuration Severity: Major Priority: 5 - Normal Item Group: Software Error Status: None Privacy: Public Assigned to: None Originator Name: redfast00 Originator Email: redfas...@gmail.com Open/Closed: Open Discussion Lock: Any Release: Release: 2.02~beta1 Reproducibility: Every Time Planned Release: None _______________________________________________________ Details: The following bug is also on http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/250587/grub-disable-recovery-not-working-on-detected-os I have a laptop with a tripleboot of three Linux installs: Kali Linux 2.0 and two times Debian 8.2 (one for gaming and one for development). I wanted to disable the recovery options, so I uncommented `#GRUB_DISABLE_RECOVERY="true"` in `/etc/default/grub`. This succesfully removed the recovery options from Kali Linux (the system where update-grub was run). However, this didn't disable the recovery options for the two Debian installs. How can I disable the recovery options for the two Debian installs without manually editing `/boot/grub/grub.cfg`? Result of `cat /boot/grub/grub.cfg | grep 'recovery'` before uncommenting: menuentry 'Kali GNU/Linux, with Linux 4.0.0-kali1-amd64 (recovery mode)' --class kali --class gnu-linux --class gnu --class os $menuentry_id_option 'gnulinux-4.0.0-kali1-amd64-recovery-1a2ddb7f-7fc3-40b5-b226-ed5cf940205e' { menuentry 'Debian GNU/Linux, with Linux 3.16.0-4-amd64 (recovery mode) (on /dev/mapper/ROOT--VG-DEBIAN--DEV)' --class gnu-linux --class gnu --class os $menuentry_id_option 'osprober-gnulinux-/boot/vmlinuz-3.16.0-4-amd64-root=/dev/mapper/ROOT--VG-DEBIAN--DEV ro single-60442acd-d36a-4d7d-90c8-515281fe68d8' { menuentry 'Debian GNU/Linux, with Linux 3.16.0-4-amd64 (recovery mode) (on /dev/mapper/ROOT--VG-GAME--ROOT)' --class gnu-linux --class gnu --class os $menuentry_id_option 'osprober-gnulinux-/boot/vmlinuz-3.16.0-4-amd64-root=/dev/mapper/ROOT--VG-GAME--ROOT ro single-1b27071e-4fcb-41c2-b9c8-01bccf90a10c' { And after: menuentry 'Debian GNU/Linux, with Linux 3.16.0-4-amd64 (recovery mode) (on /dev/mapper/ROOT--VG-DEBIAN--DEV)' --class gnu-linux --class gnu --class os $menuentry_id_option 'osprober-gnulinux-/boot/vmlinuz-3.16.0-4-amd64-root=/dev/mapper/ROOT--VG-DEBIAN--DEV ro single-60442acd-d36a-4d7d-90c8-515281fe68d8' { menuentry 'Debian GNU/Linux, with Linux 3.16.0-4-amd64 (recovery mode) (on /dev/mapper/ROOT--VG-GAME--ROOT)' --class gnu-linux --class gnu --class os $menuentry_id_option 'osprober-gnulinux-/boot/vmlinuz-3.16.0-4-amd64-root=/dev/mapper/ROOT--VG-GAME--ROOT ro single-1b27071e-4fcb-41c2-b9c8-01bccf90a10c' { If it matters, here is my disklayout: - /dev/sda1 mounted to /boot - /dev/sda2 extended partition - /dev/sda5 lvm volume with ROOT-VG volume groum - /dev/ROOT-VG/GAME-ROOT - ext4 partition mounted to / in gaming machine - /dev/ROOT-VG/DEBIAN-DEV - ext4 partition mounted to / in development machine - /dev/sda6 luks-encrypted volume - ext4 partition mounted to / in Kali Linux Grub version: 2.02~beta2-22+deb8u1 _______________________________________________________ Reply to this item at: <http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?46738> _______________________________________________ Message sent via/by Savannah http://savannah.gnu.org/ _______________________________________________ Bug-grub mailing list Bug-grub@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-grub
