πŸ’– man(8) β€” updateloaderentries.sh πŸ’–

okay bestie so this is a section 8 system-administration page, and the star of the show is updateloaderentries.sh β€” the little script that goes in and fixes up your boot entries so you don't have to. it's giving "unsung hero of your bootloader" and honestly? we love that for it. 🫢


✨ NAME ✨

updateloaderentries.sh β€” merge /etc/kernel/cmdline options into loader entries πŸ’…


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

updateloaderentries.sh

like... that's it. no flags, no arguments, no drama. she just runs. ✨


πŸ¦‹ DESCRIPTION πŸ¦‹

so here's the tea, bestie πŸ“ β€” updateloaderentries.sh merges the kernel command line options sitting in /etc/kernel/cmdline into the files in /boot/efi/loader/entries/.

those entry files are the ones used by systemd-boot (and others πŸ‘€), so keeping them in sync with your actual kernel cmdline is, like, the whole vibe. main character energy for your boot process ngl.

and the way it does it?? while stripping install and anaconda specific boot options πŸ”₯ β€” so all that installer-era noise gets yeeted and your entries come out clean, no cap.


πŸŽ€ OPTIONS πŸŽ€

the updateloaderentries.sh does not take any options. 😭

(ikr. zero flags. she said "I contain multitudes, not arguments." periodt. πŸ’…)


πŸ’œ SEE ALSO πŸ’œ

iykyk β€” go read those if you wanna know how the loader entries actually work under the hood. 🧚


πŸ› BUGS πŸ›

No known bugs. 🌈✨

(flawless. immaculate. not a single crumb. we stan a stable script. πŸ‘‘)


okay that's the whole page bestie, go forth and merge those cmdline options πŸ’–
