what has been an issue is I don't get sub-menus if the BLSCFG option is enabled.
I guess I am not sure what a grub submenu is.
What would be an example of one?

Hi Barry,
If I talk generically, if I have 3 kernels, with BLSCFG active I
get the following menus:
kernel3
kernel2
kernel1
Windows Boot
and then I can select whatever entry I want to boot from.
With BLSCFG disabled I get the following:
kernel3
sub-menu-list
Windows Boot
and then if I click on sub-menu-list it then displays the following
with pressing ESC taking me back to the main menu:
kernel3
kernel2
kernel1
and I can boot from any of the kernels, if I change my mind and
want to boot from the latest kernel instead of one of the older kernels
I can or press ESC to go back to the main menu to boot from the latest
kernel or boot into Windows if I've changed my mind and want to boot
Windows instead.
From my perspective I find the sub-menu display to be a much neater
presentation, and as I said in the original thread, since the
introduction of BLSCFG into Fedora, whenever I run "sudo grub2-mkconfig
-o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg" the sub-menu option is ignored, which when the
menus were built with Grubby it used to do the same thing, it ignored
the sub-menu option before BLSCFG was being used, which is why I always
used grub2-mkconfig after kernel installs.
