[ale] Grubby and /etc/default/grub...

[Jim Kinney]

I don't think grubby modifies /etc/default/grub

It only changes the (specified|running) kernel grub(2) boot line.

Every time you stop a school, you will have to build a jail. What you
gain at one end you lose at the other. It's like feeding a dog on his
own tail. It won't fatten the dog.
