|
|
given : 3 kernels in /boot (3.10.28, 312..9, 3.13.0) + memtest86plus
idea: grub2 should automatically boot kernel 3.12.9 using the automatically generated gub2 menu with Code: | mount /boot/; grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg | (example: http://bpaste.net/show/172048/) and the values in the config file /etc/default/grub
I tried nearly all values for GRUB_DEFAULT ("1", "2" and the complete menu item as a string) in /etc/default/grub together with grub2-set-default, eg Code: | grub2-set-default 'Gentoo GNU/Linux, with Linux x86-3.12.9' | - no chance.
When I set GRUB_DEFAULT to a number then just the appropriate entry in the main menu is preselected, but I want the 2nd entry in the sub-menu ...
Any advice ?
hhm, will try "1>1" now hhm, works now |
