Thanks for that suggestion on going to the manual entries in grub idea. I think that Felix M. made that suggestion to me previously, but I have a lot going on in my life these days and making yet more time to go manual (editing with each kernel upgrade, etc)
No, you don't have to edit entries ever. There are two ways. One, you use the kernel link: Telcontar:~ # ls -l /boot/vmlinuz lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 36 Feb 19 22:27 /boot/vmlinuz -> vmlinuz-5.14.21-150400.24.46-default Telcontar:~ # ls -l /boot/initrd lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 35 Feb 19 22:27 /boot/initrd -> initrd-5.14.21-150400.24.46-default Telcontar:~ # Two, you don't create entries for the kernels, but to the grub of those partitions: cat /boot/grub2/custom.cfg # If you change this file, run 'grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg' afterwards to update # /boot/grub2/grub.cfg. # Needed for changes to the default boot to hold. menuentry 'Gestor (por uuid)' --id cer-gestor-001 { insmod part_gpt insmod ext2 set root='hd2,gpt2' if search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set=root 943d6... ; then chainloader +1 else echo Could not find this OS instance, will not boot (3) sleep 1 fi } menuentry 'oS 12.3, sda1 (label aux_extrasys)' --id cer-sda1-001 { insmod part_msdos insmod ext2 set root='hd0,msdos1' if search --no-floppy --fs-uuid --set=root 3f87... ; then chainloader +1 else echo Could not find this OS instance, will not boot (3) sleep 1 fi } -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E.
