Public bug reported: As it currently stands grub2 cannot create grub.cfg menu entries that do not use an initrd image if one is present but the user does not desire to use it. Furthermore, root= entries only support UUID and LABEL, but neither is an option if booting the kernel without an initrd.
Suggestion: Allow grub2 to create configuration files without an "initrd" line and passing PARTUUID as root= entry by adding configuration knobs. ** Affects: grub2 (Ubuntu) Importance: High Assignee: Chris Glass (tribaal) Status: Triaged -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1640878 Title: grub2 cannot currently generate configuration without initrd To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub2/+bug/1640878/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
