The boot loader will then erase this line: this is a once-only command. It is typically used in reboot scripts, just before calling `shutdown -r'. Used with- out any arguments, it will cancel a lock-ed or fallback command line. --- END OF QUOTE --- Follow-up Comments ------------------ ------------------------------------------------------- Date: Mon 06/21/2004 at 11:54 By: okuji This is done in the trunk of the CVS. ------------------------------------------------------- Date: Tue 10/01/2002 at 14:38 By: katzj A patch was submitted with this functionality back in February -- see http://mail.gnu.org/pipermail/bug-grub/2002-February/006701.html ------------------------------------------------------- Date: Tue 10/01/2002 at 12:19 By: hno See also Bug #557 on the savedefault command. ------------------------------------------------------- Date: Tue 10/01/2002 at 12:02 By: hno I'll second this, and propose it to be implemented as a temporary version of "savedefault". savenextdefault <entrynr> savenextdefault saves the default entry to be used for the next boot only. The boot after that will go back to the normal default entry. Problme is that this needs the embedded data in stage2 to be extended with one more byte if to be done in a easy manner. Another alternative would be to extend "savedefault" with an optional argument telling which entry to boot. This way one can easily make a grub script that switches to another boot entry, and have this boot entry switch the default back to the normal entry by executing a "savedefault normal-entry-number" command.
