What happens when you try to boot? Can you see the grub2 menu screen? |
| 16 |
|

If you can see the grub2 menu screen you should try using the grub2 |
| 18 |
command shell (type "c" to enter the command shell) which will allow |
| 19 |
you to experiment with all of the grub commands that you compiled into |
| 20 |
the grub2 package. |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
If you can get to the grub shell prompt you can hit TAB to see a list of |
| 23 |
available grub commands. |
| 24 |
|
| 25 |
The important point is this: any grub command that works from the grub |
| 26 |
shell prompt can be typed *verbatim* into a grub2 'menuitem' stanza. |
| 27 |
|
| 28 |
The first time I used grub2-mkconfig I noticed that it generates config |
| 29 |
files that strike me as a bit hysterical (excuse the sexist adjective). |
