My grandfather still believes those are multiple _different_ Fedora
installations, each having different games/files. As he has also CentOS menu
item there having multiple Fedora items is just too much for him.
Since Fedora has adopted grub2, I haven't had a Fedora installation
whose grub2 was working flawlessly, worse since systemd.
Going after these issues forces me to dig into grub2 and kernel
parameters, even though I really don't want to :)
Failed boot of a new kernel is a rare case needing assistance of
someone more
capable of admin work.
Correct, but "somewhat working/somewhat failing" boots are quite common.
I guess, they are much more common than most people around here believe,
because such cases often are hidden by "rhgb" and "quiet".
Such person knows how to display the menu.
I am inclinded to
agree in case of hard failures, but not in case of
"minor failures".
