ll try it. I had second thoughts about this, worried about bricking my machine. But, as I wrote Chris, the problem is in the automatic routing of command output to less, like systemd does. Not sure why bash would suddenly start doing this. There is no issue with dracut or grub2-mkconfig themsel

Just compiled a custom kernel. When I tried to create a custom initramfs, the job seemed to create the file, but hung indefinitely in D status, with call_r. Trying to recreate the grub.cfg file by running grub2-mkconfig also went into uninterruptable sleep. When I ran this two weeks ago

There are at least two bugs that sum the confusion and remains in F17: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=755272 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=768106 In short: kernel install adds option to grub.cfg using grubby, while grub2-mkconfig generates a different menuentries

is plain wrong, modifying it manually is the only way to go. What we should do is get rid of all the template files and grub2-mkconfig and just ship grubby.

of 10_linux, grub2-mkconfig, and grub2-mkconfig_lib (or maybe it's not renamed in Fedora and is grub-mkconfig_lib) but I suspect that it's not only the menuentry titles that are the same in grub.cfg but that the root= values on the linux lines are all the same too and not pointing to the slackware

Re: Grub2 mkconfig

my own. You share a boot partition between all the distros? Yeah, grub2-mkconfig as it stands really has no way of figuring out which one's which in that case. You don't strictly have to edit/rewrite grub2-mkconfig, as long as Fedora is the only distro messing with GRUB. Fedora does not rerun
