Re: grub2-mkconfig doesn't take parameters from /etc/default/grub



Thanks, 
Shall update /boot/loader.0/entries/ostree-fedora-atomic-x.conf  directly as workaround, and I also noticed that the changes are kept after rpm-ostree upgrade.

Yeah, this is a bug.

Not sure how that bug is related.

This is a bug, we need an administrator-friendly way to manipulate
the kernel arguments for sure.  And it is definitely confusing that /etc/default/grub
exists on ostree systems but we don't respect it.

I think the best fix here is:

# ostree admin set-kargs  (like the existing ostree admin instutil set-kargs but would work interactively)

And we teach Anaconda to delete /etc/default/grub for rpmostreepayload systems?

In the meantime, it does work to just `vi /boot/loader/foo.conf`, but I know this
isn't really documented well and doesn't have a lot of historical momenum
behind it.

Maybe instead of deleting /etc/default/grub we replace it with a document
that points to `ostree admin set-kargs`.
