Instead of changing grub.cfg, what I've done on my computer was to change /etc/grub.d/10_linux (the source file when generating the grub.cfg):
Remove the lines that mentions recordfail: $ diff /etc/grub.d/10_linux /etc/grub.d/.10_linux.bak 59a60,61 > recordfail=1 > save_env recordfail I then run: $ sudo chmod u+w /boot/grub/grub.cfg $ sudo grub-mkconfig > /boot/grub/grub.cfg $ sudo chmod u-w /boot/grub/grub.cfg This should stop update-grub from adding the lines back. -- invalid: environment block https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/439784 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
