         I did that and found it a very long document with things like this:

#

/*GRUB SAVEDEFAULT=*/** If set to /*true*/ this setting will 
automatically set the last selected OS from the menu as the default OS 
on the next boot.

    * No commands need be run to set the default OS.
    * Any time a menuentry is manually selected from the GRUB2 menu, it
      becomes the default OS.

#

/**/

     This is a typical Grub2 statement.  What is the last selected OS???
