Retain `loader.conf` settings

Open ahkok opened this issue 7 years ago • 3 comments

It should be possible to retain settings other than default and timeout in the loader.conf. Specifically, the 4 following options should be retained at all times:

  • editor
  • auto-entries
  • auto-firmware
  • console-mode

right now these are wiped every time clr-boot-manager runs.

Definitely agree. My Windows partition can't be accessed if the timeout is reset to 0 (and the shift menu trigger has some crazy short timeout). It'd also be nice to set things like timeout directly via clr-boot-manager without manually accessing the ESP, though that's another thing.

@cunidev I might be misunderstanding you but isn't clr-boot-manager set-timeout && clr-boot-manager update doing just that?

@bryteise er... yeah, didn't find anything about such feature before, glad to hear it exists. Still, keeping the .conf file through updates would be very useful
