Removing boot entries

Hey, I need help removing some boot grub entries, I have triple boot, I have kali, win10 and now garuda (garuda installed last meaning I use garudas grub), and I cant find a way to remove the “extra” entries that I dont need, the recovery, advanced options, etc ones.
I found the garuda-boot setting or whatisitcalled, doesnt support that and as of my knowledge (and some AI haha), its the same, I would like to request help in how can I HIDE some entries from the grub. thanks

  • If you need real help you should post your garuda-inxi.
  • All that stuff to change you can find it if you really read+search.
  • that’s totally wrong what you write here over “garuda” boot. It’s grub2 boot + the settings from the garuda team. Default it’s easy. You can change it as you like, if you know the how-to.

  • Grub recovery + dual booting
    Read the how-to for grub2 from the grub home page, the arch wiki, use man; use here the forum search or the great www to disable the recovery entries inside the boot menu.

  • read the “os-proper” stuff to disable/enable these entries.

Relevant entries for this you found in /etc/default/grub
GRUB_DISABLE_RECOVERY=true ; GRUB_DISABLE_OS_PROBER=true

  • for “fallback” boots
    Dracut handle the initramfs stuff + fallback.
    You should read the how-to for this.
    Relevant folder for this are /etc/dracut.conf.d or the file /etc/dracut.conf
    You could however disable the generation of fallback kernels by setting:
    NO_DRACUT_FALLBACK="true"

Don’t do this with the AI. Read pls the relevant stuff, then make your manual intervention.
After changing grub and / or dracut settings → sudo update-grub + sudo dracut-rebuild
then reboot.
After each update from grub you must take a look on this.

Think on a snapshot before in the case of trial + error.

p.s. AI + Arch …hahaha. Current and misleading in many respects relating to Arch.
