Grub2 default boot post F18 kernel update to 3.7.5

view story

http://forums.fedoraforum.org – I have just updated my kernel to 3.7.5 due to software issues with DKMS, VirtualBox and the previous kernel not working (although I suppose the reason is somewhat irrelevant). Since then, Grub2 has the old (what shipped with F18 / was updated with yum) kernel as the default, and looks similar to: Fedora 3.7.5 Fedora 3.7.4-204.F18.x86_84 other options I've tried rebuilding Grub2 with grub2-makeconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg (I basically followed Fedora's Guide and have event tried changing the name of files in /etc/grub.d (as suggested here). It looks similar to: 00_header (or something) 10 (HowTos)

Hello

Been googling this for a little while but could only find a response for fedora 10 so thought it might be out of date maybe, I just ran a yum update and the kernel i compiled last week has now been replaced with a new version at boot time.

Going through LFS 7.3 and about ready to make it bootable but Fedora's grub is giving me issue.

The plan was to share /boot between LFS and Fedora 18 as I have done in the past (been awhile since I ran LFS - LFS 4.something last time). Hell, I've shared /boot between Fedora, CentOS, Ubuntu, and LFS.

F-18 Grub borked, how to fix? 17 weeks 4 days ago

Evidently I had some kind of failure during the installation of fedora 18.

Grub2 was evidently not completely installed.

I was able to mostly fix things by doing a grub2-install followed by a grub2-mkconifg from the rescue DVD.

My system now boots but there is no graphical boot....

I think the problem is that I do not have a 'grub' file in /etc/defaults...

Grub2 cannot find config file 44 weeks 11 hours ago

I recently upgraded my system from Fedora 14 to 16 by http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Upgrad...dora_using_yum . All went quite smoothly except for one very odd problem. As you know this upgrade switches from grub to grub2.

This might be due to grub2 not properly loading initramfs image into the memory and/or informing the kernel  about its memory location so that the kernel can mount it and boot from it.I screwed up grub so I can't tell you...

Hi all,

Any idea why the DVD media is using grub as its bootloader and then installing it to disk instead of grub2?
