> Hello,
>
> Today installed F17-TC5 from DVD, and have F16(upgraded from F15) and LMDE
> pre-installed. The menu entries in grub2 seem to be showing some anomalous
> behaviour:
>
> 1) The main grub2 menu shows F17, F16 and LMDE along with their respective
> advanced options list item. An 'e' on F16 list item reveals the kernel to
> be 3.3.2-1 (have three kernels installed for F16: 3.3.4-3, 3.3.2-6 and
> 3.3.2-1). The oldest kernel is being shown in the main grub menu, as
> against the latest kernel.
>
> 2) Under advanced options for F16, three list items are being shown, all
> bearing the same name "Fedora Linux 16 (Verne)". No kernel is mentioned.
> The advanced options for F17 and LMDE shows menu entries with kernel
> versions.
>
> 3) An 'e' on each item in Advanced options menu of F16 reveals a reversed
> ordering of kernels, the first one being 3.3.2-1, next is 3.3.2-6 and third
> being 3.3.4-3.
>
> The grub2 version is:
> $ rpm -qa | grep grub
> grub2-2.0-0.25.beta4.fc17.i686
