Hi.
Since Kernel 6.8 it looks like grub.conf is not being updated.
The files are installed but grub.cfg is not updated.
During installation I see this error:
----

If I manually add the entry to grub.cfg it appears and runs, but it is
weird that grub is not updating as it used to.
Currently I am using kernel 6.7.10

sda and sdb are just old drives I have left in place, sometimes I look up
info in there.
sdc and sdd are my regular system.
I did not mind staying for a while in kernel 6.7.10 because I am using an
old nvidia driver (470) but it seems like they solve the problem with
kernel 6.8 already so I should be able to start using it normally
I tried to google-fu the answer but I found a lot of references and
recipies in ubuntu, gentoo, archlinux that I am not sure if they are
applicable to my case.

Ok, I think I solved it.
I created the entry manually for Kernel 6.8.8 on grub.cfg and rebooted.
Once in this kernel, I dnf reinstalled it and everything seems to have
worked fine.
dnf did not show any error and I had journalctl -f on another terminal and
did not see any error either.
I am going to chalk this one to some difference between Kernel 6.7 and 6.8.
Weird.

Did you somehow miss the change to BLS? The entries shouldn't be in
grub.cfg. They should be in /boot/loader/entries.

Don' know. I have been dnf upgrading this system almost since Fedora was
simple digits. .🤔
I am planning a new build for F40 and definitely clean install it.

There are post-upgrade tasks that should be performed to keep the system
tidy. See <
https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/quick-docs/upgrading-fedora-offline/...
.
In particular, are you taking the maintainer's version of config files
during `rpmconf -a`? Or are you keeping old versions?

I usually keep the old version. From time to time I do a diff check to see
if there is something new and research the change.
