I'm not either, I'd appreciate hearing from anyone who IS, on this.
grub2's far less clean IMO than -legacy, but with support completely refused
for -legacy by upstream, it's the way of things now.
Just installing -xen & -default kernels alongside of grub2 ends up generating
this list of menu & submenu entries:
grep "submenu\|^\menuentry" /boot/grub2/grub.cfg | cut -d "'" -f2
openSUSE
Advanced options for openSUSE
openSUSE GNU/Linux, with Xen hypervisor
Advanced options for openSUSE GNU/Linux (with Xen hypervisor)
Xen hypervisor, version 4.5.0_03-359
Xen hypervisor, version 4.5
Xen hypervisor, version 4
Xen hypervisor, version dbg
Xen hypervisor, version xen
Xen hypervisor, version dbg-4.5.0_03-359
Xen hypervisor, version dbg-4.5
Xen hypervisor, version dbg-4
Not sure what to do with all of those yet.
On a headless server without some helpful GUI tools making edits is a bit of a
mess. While setting up & tuning Xen, snce -xen & -default tuning are
necessarily different, this gets to be a pain.
I'm hoping I won't have to resort to manual config of grub.cfg.
