Thanks for the responses all, I have confirmed that the symbolic link
points to /etc/default/grub
$ ls -la /etc/sysconfig/
total 152
lrwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 17 Jun 11 02:31 grub -> /etc/default/grub
when I use less to read /etc/default/grub, below is what I am seeing;
therefore, the /etc/default/grub file is not the same on this box, I will
whip up a F24 KVM instance and copy the /etc/default/grub file to this box
and I think I should be good.
# DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE
#
# It is automatically generated by grub2-mkconfig using templates
# from /etc/grub.d and settings from /etc/default/grub
#
### BEGIN /etc/grub.d/00_header ###
set pager=1
if [ -s $prefix/grubenv ]; then
load_env
fi
if [ "${next_entry}" ] ; then
set default="${next_entry}"
set next_entry=
save_env next_entry
set boot_once=true
else
set default="${saved_entry}"
fi
if [ x"${feature_menuentry_id}" = xy ]; then
menuentry_id_option="--id"
else
*/etc/default/grub*
