I need to test a kernel config change on a remote system. Is there a safe way to do this? The fallback thing in grub has never worked for me. When does that ever work?
You can press ESC in the Grub screen and it will take you to text-only mode. There, you select an entry, press "e" and edit it. Press ENTER when you're finished, and then press "b" to boot your modified entry.
That way, you can boot whatever kernel you want if the current one doesn't work.
