That might be an acceptable limitation.
The only feature I'm thinking of that depends on pre-boot GRUB writing to grubenv is resetting boot success to zero, which is part of the hide boot menu by default feature. If grubenv can be change from pre-boot environment, we can't correctly determine if boot has succeeded or failed. So what's the best fallback? Always show grub menu or always hide it? I think probably the former. If the grub.cfg code first reads grubenv, and sees boot_success=0 and therefore no need to write to grubenv to reset it back to 0, that's one first step. But then to make sure the systemd unit that marks boot successful by overwriting grubenv with boot_success=1, is there a way to disable (or not enable) that systemd unit if the user has chosen a custom installation in anaconda? -- Chris Murphy _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to devel-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://getfedora.org/code-of-conduct.html List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org
