Comment # 8 on bug 990701 from andreas bittner

Today came a newer 4.8  rc1 kernel, and apparently this one has become the
default in the grub2 menu.

so is it possible that there are or were some misconfigurations in the KOTD
kernel packages from before, that some sort order or naming or parsing of
package names or parts have caused the bad order of entries in grub2?

right now i have

uname -a
Linux linux 4.8.0-rc1-1.gf3b2ad2-default #1 SMP PREEMPT Mon Aug 15 00:08:33 UTC

rpm -aq | grep kernel
