Fedora (even FC12) has a very old GRUB 2. update-grub has been long ago renamed to grub-mkconfig. > Would it do any good to nuke the rpm and install this version, saving > the > update-grub2 script to use as a wrapper? > > Thanks for any insight you can throw my way. > If you want to use GRUB 2 then purge the Fedora versions of GRUB Legacy and GRUB 2. You should not even save the original update-grub2 script. I don't think it's any wrapper. It's our update-grub (now grub-mkconfig) just renamed to update-grub2 so that GRUB Legacy and GRUB 2 can coexist on the system. If then make it a real wrapper/stub by just calling grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg But I'm except of these rename changes not at all familiar with the Fedora changes. So better look at the source rpm there if you need/want any modifications they did to GRUB 2. -- Felix Zielcke Proud Debian Maintainer and GNU GRUB developer _______________________________________________ Bug-grub mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-grub
