[Mageia-discuss] Bug or Feature?

I just discovered that when a new kernel package is installed the grub 
menu entry is added to the bottom rather than the top. The result is 
that the original kernel remains the default and new kernels not used. 
Most of my systems are only accessed through ssh so I had no idea the 
new kernels weren't being used and this only came to my attention today 
when another update, probably dbus, broke the old kernel and hung all my 
boxes during reboot.

I would think that if you install an update the expectation is that it 
would be used by default. I haven't had time to check yet, but this may 
also be the cause of other bugs I've been having. Is this a bug or 
intended behavior?
