Summary: grub2-mkconfig does not correctly prioritize rc vs production kernels Project: GNU GRUB Submitted by: rich0 Submitted on: Tue 05 Aug 2014 09:21:47 PM GMT Category: Configuration Severity: Major Priority: 5 - Normal Item Group: None Status: None Privacy: Public Assigned to: None Originator Name: Rich Freeman Originator Email: r-...@thefreemanclan.net Open/Closed: Open Discussion Lock: Any Release: Release: Git master Reproducibility: Every Time Planned Release: None _______________________________________________________ Details: Downstream Gentoo bug: https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=519048 >From this bug: Given the following collection of kernels (and their corresponding configs and dracut initramfs files): vmlinuz-3.15.5-gentoo vmlinuz-3.16.0+ vmlinuz-3.16.0-rc4 vmlinuz-3.16.0-rc5 vmlinuz-3.16.0-rc6 vmlinuz-3.16.0-rc6+ vmlinuz-3.16.0-rc6+.old vmlinuz-3.16.0-rc7+ grub2-mkconfig produces a grub.cfg that makes the default kernel vmlinuz-3.16.0-rc7+. The default should obviously be vmlinuz-3.16.0+. The config output for 2.00_p5107 and git master are identical. Both list rc7+ in the first slot. _______________________________________________________ Reply to this item at: <http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?42921> _______________________________________________ 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
