Everyone:
I've mentioned this before, but still don't have an answer that gives
a consistent result. Since I installed F43 on my system - and I mean a
fresh, clean install, overriding old swap and home partitions (I had
my data saved on another drive, so that's unaffected) - booting up
goes to a message that reads: "GRUB boot loader: Welcome to GRUB."
Five seconds later, it goes through its startup routines. (I removed
"rhgb quiet" from the list of boot-up command-level switches).
Someone suggested I was getting that five-second Welcome screen
because I had only one kernel installed at the time. Well, that was
two weeks ago, and the system has had several updates. And rarely I
/do/ get to a screen listing three kernels to choose from - so I
already have more than one.
So: where do I find the file that governs whether to just "go with the
latest kernel," and what command do I change, remove, or add?
FYI, I installed the new KDE Plasma Desktop Edition. Several updates
later, it's been running better than ever - all except for that one
thing.
I think the critical component of the /etc/default/grub file shown in
the thread is the GRUB_TIMEOUT option, which I have set to 999 (this
causes a count down from 999 to 0 before it boots from the highlighted
entry in the menu).
I also have the GRUB_ENABLE_BLSCFG=false option as well as I found that
caused me issues with the grub menu as well.
I also use the command GRUB2_MKCONFIG -0(this is the letter oh)
/BOOT/GRUB2/GRUB.CFG to build the file that contains what is shown in
the grub menu. That command is all that is needed if your system is
UEFI, if using legacy bios mode then you will also need to use
GRUB2_INSTALL <device> (eg: GRUB2_INSTALL /dev/sda).
