Follow-up Comment #2, bug #39306 (project grub): if you mean _$menuentry_id_option_, then that's no more 'stable' than the indexes. i.e. they can both change when a menuentry is added or removed.
That's most of the point of this script - so you can list the current menuentries after update-grub and then run grub-set-default or grub-reboot if required. without this script, you have to do something like _egrep 'submenu|menuentry' /boot/grub/grub.cfg_ and extract the menuentry_id_option or count the menus and submenus yourself. _______________________________________________________ Reply to this item at: <http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?39306> _______________________________________________ Message sent via/by Savannah http://savannah.gnu.org/ _______________________________________________ Bug-grub mailing list Bug-grub@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-grub
