NAME¶

bootloader_entry - add or remove kernel/initrd pair to boot loader configuration.

SYNOPSIS¶

bootloader_entry [COMMAND] FLAVOR VERSION KERNEL INITRD

DESCRIPTION¶

bootloader_entry adds or removes a kernel/initrd pair to the boot loader configuration.

Note that the FLAVOR argument is there for interface compatibility reasons and not actually used.

bootloader_entry is just a symlink to pbl. The add and remove options will be translated to pbl --add-kernel and pbl --remove-kernel, respectively.

bootloader_entry is not intended to called manually. It is a preserved interface to the boot loader configuration that is used in the post-install section of the Linux kernel package.

COMMANDS¶

add

Add kernel/initrd to boot config.

remove

Remove kernel/initrd from boot config.

FILES¶

/etc/sysconfig/bootloader

Default log file.

/usr/etc/logrotate.d/pbl
