Changes are either "permanent", or per boot. When an edit is done at the Grub
menu via the E key, it is per boot, current boot, one-time only. "Permanent"
edits
are made in /etc/default/grub, and applied by updating grub.cfg. Per boot is for
testing a parameter's behavior, and deciding whether it is needed "permanently".
