I have all config in my grub.d set up properly. The output of grub-mkconfig and works fine. When I update the kernel the new entry "Fedora [kernel version]" is added directly to my grub.cfg, on the first place. It seems like the distro is running some script after each kernel update. How can I simply invoke grub-mkconfig instead?
The postinstall scriptlet of the kernel package runs
/sbin/new-kernel-pkg --package kernel --installkernel-version
It seems that new-kernel-pkg which is a part of the grubby package does not run grub2-mkconfig as it should on systems using GRUB2.
As far as I can see, the best option at this point is to run
grub2-mkconfig >/boot/grub2/grub.cfg
manually after installing a new kernel.
Of course you can patch new-kernel-pkg if you like. The script, however, seems a bit hairy.
@maxyan: that won't work. As soon as the package is updated, it'll get reverted. There was a discussion on grubby vs grub-mkconfig on the fedora devel list. You can google for it if you want.
