Description peter czanik 2005-08-10 16:31:46 UTC

In earlier versions, when I used "Suspend computer", SuSE Linux started
immediatelly on next boot. We were told, that it's for our good, as this way we
can't mess up filesystems from other OS-es.
Now, after "Suspend computer" is used, the normal grub boot menu comes up on
next boot, allowing me to choose anything I want. This should be changed back.

grub no longer supports our function.
Torsten, this is the function we had until now:

---------------------------
# grub-once()
# does the same as the grubonce script from the grub package:
# selects which menu entry to boot next.
grub-once() {
    DEBUG "running grub-once $1" DIAG
    echo -e "savedefault --stage2=/boot/grub/stage2 --default=$1 --once\nquit"\
    | grub --batch
}
-------------------------------

what do i need to change?

Same cause, different symptom.

"/usr/sbin/grubonce <n>" was the interface to be used. You're making  
assumptions about grub internals with that script. These internals have  
changed now and the "once"-logic could be moved out.  
  
 "running grub-once ..." ???

Hello, 
I updated two computers from Suse 9.3 to 10.0rc1. 
 
Desktop - upgraded using Yast + System Upgrade, then reboot 
Notebook - upgraded using network install boot CD 
 
On my notebook, this works as advertised (no pause in Grub after suspend to 
disk). On my desktop, this does not work (I get the normal Grub menu).
