grub-reboot

GRUB-REBOOT(8)						  System Administration Utilities					    GRUB-REBOOT(8)

NAME

       grub-reboot - set the default boot entry for GRUB, for the next boot only

SYNOPSIS

       grub-reboot [OPTION] MENU_ENTRY

DESCRIPTION

       Set the default boot menu entry for GRUB, for the next boot only.

       -h, --help
	      print this message and exit

       -V, --version
	      print the version information and exit

       --boot-directory=DIR
	      expect GRUB images under the directory DIR/grub instead of the /boot/grub directory

       MENU_ENTRY is a number, a menu item title or a menu item identifier. Please note that menu items in submenus or sub-submenus require speci-
       fying the submenu components and then the menu item component. The titles should be separated using the greater-than character (>) with	no
       extra  spaces.  Depending on your shell some characters including > may need escaping. More information about this is available in the GRUB
       Manual in the section about the 'default' command.
