Reposting on Fedora list because it's not only 19 affected
I noticed this morning that when I run grub2-mkconfig from my fedora
19 partition, or from my 18 partition
it does not find all the kernels on a fedora 17 partition. There are
3 in Fedora 17 /boot...3.8.11, 3.8.13 and the latest
3.9.5. It finds only the 3.8.11 kernel. Grub was installed in
/dev/sda from the 19 partition; I have since re-installed
Grub from the 18 partition and the same problem exists.
Is this a bug or am I missing something?
Further to this....I checked the grub.cfg and the other kernels are
in the list. But Grub is not displaying them when advanced options
is picked. It only displays the one kernel.
Be more accurate when describing what you've done. Verify that you really
run
grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg
and not use any symlink that would be replaced incorrectly.
Then, if you see all the kernels in that grub.cfg, figure out whether
they are visible in the top menu. Perhaps upload that grub.cfg to fpaste.
Of course, you need to be sure that it's the file that GRUB loads, so
insert something that would be displayed at boot-time, and verify it's
the file.
The first line of my post says ..."when I run grub2-mkconfig from my
Fedora 19 partition"...
No symlinks are involved.
Taking Pomas suggestion I simplified my /etc/default/grub.cfg to the
bare minimums and
in this convoluted way solved my problem. But all I get now is a bare
bones minimum menu...but
that's OK.
I suspect as another poster suggested here there are still a few
undocumented or badly documented
bugs/features in grub :)
