Summary: Alternates linux_entry with/without GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_CUSTOM Project: GNU GRUB Submitted by: kwizart Submitted on: Thu 07 Sep 2017 07:34:22 AM UTC Category: Booting Severity: Major Priority: 5 - Normal Item Group: Feature Request Status: None Privacy: Public Assigned to: None Originator Name: Originator Email: Open/Closed: Open Discussion Lock: Any Release: Release: Git master Reproducibility: None Planned Release: None _______________________________________________________ Details: This patch adds a GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_CUSTOM variable to existing cmdline options, and creates a dedicated linux_entry without theses custom cmdline options. This allows users to switch between default and custom cmdlines options without much editing. For example, this helps when installing a optimized tuned profile for some use cases then be allowed to choose back to the default. An example is for drivers that needs special boot options such as: "rd.driver.blacklist=nouveau modprobe.blacklist=nouveau" Installing GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_CUSTOM_NVIDIA in /etc/default/grub will create a boot menu to use the proprietary driver, then another one willallows to boot to the default (nouveau). his requires a compatible driver integration Please comment. _______________________________________________________ File Attachments: ------------------------------------------------------- Date: Thu 07 Sep 2017 07:34:22 AM UTC Name: 0001-Alternates-linux_entry-with-without-GRUB_CMDLINE_LIN.patch Size: 2KiB By: kwizart <http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/download.php?file_id=41752> _______________________________________________________ Reply to this item at: <http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?51957> _______________________________________________ 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
