You can pass things to grub on the IPL command using the PARM statement. I just had to do that when I needed to validate a systemd timing problem with a kernel parm. It's tricky with the lower case stuff.
Is that what you are trying to do? -----Original Message----- From: Linux on 390 Port <[email protected]> On Behalf Of Mark Post Sent: Thursday, May 4, 2023 4:55 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [LINUX-390] Edit grub from 3270 console I'm pretty sure they're asking about the ability of using grub itself to change things, when the grub menu is displayed. If so, then there is supposed to be a way to do it, but I never really dug into it well enough to figure it out properly. There are a couple of hints given on the screen about which keys to use, etc., but after that I wasn't initially able to get any further, and had to move on to other tasks. If they're not talking about that, and are asking about using some form of editor to modify the config file itself, then you're correct. I really wish the old UTS editor that was made to work with 3270/3215 terminals had been open sourced before the company went under, but that never happened.
