Description Paul Whalen 2019-03-13 18:07:43 UTC 
Description of problem:
Booting a recent Fedora IoT(ostree) disk image (Fedora-IoT-30-20190312.1.aarch64.raw.xz) there are two duplicate boot menu entries. This appears to be a result of having a grub.cfg and bls snippet.

Comment 4 Javier Martinez Canillas 2019-03-14 10:24:57 UTC 
So the problem here is that both the 10_linux and 15_ostree grub.d plugins are executed, so there's a section that calls blscfg (which parses the BLS snippet in /boot/loader/entries) and another section that has a menu entry generated by ostree admin instutil grub2-generate command.

This is because the BLS configuration is enabled (GRUB_ENABLE_BLSCFG=true in /etc/default/grub), but Anaconda shouldn't do it for the Fedora IoT spin.

Comment 8 Paul Whalen 2019-04-05 19:09:08 UTC 
This is still an issue in the latest f30 iot nightlies.
Comment 9 Ben Cotton 2020-04-30 22:14:02 UTC 
This message is a reminder that Fedora 30 is nearing its end of life.
Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 30 on 2020-05-26.
It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer
maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a
Fedora 'version' of '30'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora version.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not 
able to fix it before Fedora 30 is end of life. If you would still like 
to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version 
of Fedora, you are encouraged  change the 'version' to a later Fedora 
version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.
Comment 10 Ben Cotton 2020-05-26 14:46:57 UTC 
Fedora 30 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2020-05-26. Fedora 30 is
no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further
security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of
Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you
are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the
current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this
bug.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
