Hi All - I have my 40_custom file setup. What is a good way to make that the default boot option ? I'd rather not count menu option lines and change GRUB_DEFAULT to that - as I am doing this remote. Thanks Jerry

...with passwords for modifying grub2 menu entries at boot. I know I can set a "root" user grub2 password with grub2-setpassword. I have also been able to make a grub2 user password using the grub2-mkpasswd-pbkdf2 command and adding ??? set superusers="user1" to the /etc/grub.d/40_custom file. However, I have multiple user administrators that will possibly need access to grub at boot (i.e. to boot to single user mode to fix a broken configuration file). I've tried generating two different passwords with grub2-mkpasswd-pbkdf2 and adding: ??? set superusers="user1, user2&qu...

...he user in this sort of madness. On Linux, it's like, we step on our own tails, we step on every distro's tails, we make this completely crazy complex and things don't work (automatically). What *I* would do >> I would use the Fedora GRUB instance as primary. And I would have its 40_custom include the proper lines for Windows 7, and an additional entry in 40_custom for CentOS using the configfile command to point to the CentOS grub.cfg. That way you have a single GRUB menu that always has up-to-date kernels. The kernel updater only updates the distro specific grub.cfg, so using con...

Running os-prober generates no output. fdisk shows that the NTFS partition is still present as /dev/sda1, and still has the bootable flag set.

Is there any known problem that prevents the installer or Grub2 from finding Win...

...y) I installed C7, went fine. About the time it was done I realized I never saw anything about "other" boot options (seems I saw that in the past). Anyway sure enough, got done and C7 boots fine - no option there for Windows. I did searching and found I needed to add to the /etc/grub.d/40_custom the following: menuentry "Windows 10" { set root='(hd0,1)' chainloader +1 } then re-run the grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg I then rebooted and sure enough I got the menu item for "Windows 10" however when I select it it does not boot.

...the debian wiki. Now, I am a confused as to what to do next. The laptop currently boots off of the default grub2 bootloader installed in the /dev/sda5 ubuntu 10.10 partition. I understand I need to manually add a ‘Xen’ stanza pointing to /dev/sda7 and the Xen kernel to for instance /etc/grub.d/40_custom - and run ‘update-grub’ so that I end up with the corresponding entry in /boot/grub/grub.cfg, but I can''t seem to find any sample or description of how I should code this additional stanza. By fiddling with grub interactively, I eventually came up with a stanza that looks something like:...

Does anyone know if it is possible to 'hide' a grub menuentry with CentOS 7 ? I have a custom menuentry that I don't want to be seen on the grub screen - but it needs to be selectable as the entry to boot via 'grub2-reboot' I've scanned the grub2 documentation - but I can't find anything obvious - so I'm guessing it can't be done - unless someone knows

The solution is to: edit: /etc/grub.d/40_custom putting in: menuentry 'name' { insmod ntfs set root=(hd0,2) chainloader +1 } note: "name" can be anything you want (within reason), and is the name that will show in the boot menu. the values here: root=(hd0,2) will vary based on your disk setup....

Hello, I have installed the Xen 4.1.1 and a working kernel 2.6.32.43 which supports Xen on a Ubuntu Linux 10.04 LTS. However, I have never successfully booted the Hypervisor and Dom0. The screen is always black after some kernel messages rapidly go by. I think that I may pass the wrong parameters to the kernel or Hypervisor with GRUB2. Can any one share his/her working grub.cfg for GRUB2 with
