So it says in many places and how-to's. But in the boot.readme file on my SuSE, that talks about several different boot loaders, it talks about
/boot/grub/menu.lst
/boot/grub2/grub.cfg
I DO NOT have
/boot/grub/menu.lst,
Belongs to Grub Legacy.
I HAVE
/boot/grub2/grub.cfg
Belongs to Grub2.
This is the file that the script thing that Carlos sent me reports as the place that holds the "instructions" for grub.
I can attach it if necessary, but /that/ is what is configuring my boot process, as far as I can tell given my lack of skills w/ grub.
I repeat, there is no file /boot/grub/menu.lst.
That is because you accepted the default openSUSE bootloader Grub2 instead of the simpler Grub Legacy. Edits you make to menu.lst are not discarded at updates times that call yast2-bootloader or perl-Bootloader to add new or remove old kernels. Edits you make to grub.cfg directly will normally be lost at updates times. With Grub2, user edits need to be made indirectly for incorporation by the Grub2 menu construction process. -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."
