Howdy, So I have these entries in my /etc/default/grub file:
GRUB_DISTRIBUTOR="Gentoo" GRUB_DEFAULT=kernel-3.13.6-gentoo GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT=3 GRUB_TIMEOUT=10 GRUB_GFXMODE=1024x768 I ran 'grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg' after the last ebuild of 3.13.6-gentoo /boot shows: kernel-3.13.0-gentoo kernel-3.13.0-gentoo-r1 kernel-3.13.1-gentoo kernel-3.13.6-gentoo kernel-3.13.6B-gentoo kernel-3.13.7-gentoo Obviously, I like to kept kernel experiments around a while.... So when I get the Grub2 (ascii) boot menu and just select the default, it boots kernel-3.13.7-gentoo, despite 'kernel-3.13.6-gentoo' being set in as the default for Grub2? Comment thoughts and suggestions, including deeper reading on grub2 is most welcome, particulary Grub2 examples. Also, is there a nice 'gui' boot-menu for grub2 ? It seems to take several repeated attemps for grub2 to correctly use the kernel I desire, despite what syntax/order I use. If I boot a kernel that is not the default, it takes about 2 minutes, then another 2 minutes of blank screen then it boot fairly quickly. The mobo is a GA-99FXA-UD3 and this might not have the bios/uefi/??? optimally configured? (first gigabyte moble). The is what I have read on grub2 (man pages, gentoo wiki) so additional reading, with some useful examples would also be much appreciated.
