You're right and I agree. The correct way to do this is to move my customizations out of grub.cfg. That activity is in progress and will happen eventually. The immediate goal here is to satisfy my curiosity about being able to alter the default "workflow" of a yum install in this particular instance. I do have a work-around that I'm okay using for now. Thanks for the feedback. FYI, in CentOS, most of the customization files are in /etc/grub.d/ and /etc/default/grub as @yurij mentions below.

You may be able to migrate your customizations out of grub.cfg so that kernel updates create a new grub.cfg that includes your customizations. | |
