In my expirence, grub does read symlinks, at least if everything is on |
| 7 |
the boot partition. My installkernel script copies the bzImage file over |
| 8 |
to boot as kernel-2.6.xx-... and then removes and creates a symlink for |
| 9 |
the new kernel to /boot/kernel. In my grub.conf I just have a line like: |
| 10 |
|
| 11 |
kernel /kernel root=/dev/... |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
This way I don't have to mess around with my grub.conf when I switch |
| 14 |
upgrade or switch kernel versions. |
