Hi there! I had a similar problem recently with grub. No idea why it doesnt work. Try using grubby instead of grub2-mkconfig if you want the system to keep your kernel parameters between boots.
Something like:
sudo grubby --args="i915.modeset=0 rd.driver.blacklist=i915" --update- kernel=ALL
Hope it helps! Have a nice day!

Hi list,
I reinstalled on my workstation CentOS 8.1.
I explain: I'm a KDE user but packages shipped from EPEL currently are buggy so I prefer a stable and functioning system to work with. So I tried to remove KDE workgroup and installed group "Workstation" but the system bricked so I reinstalled with GNOME.
I've an nvidia gtx 1050ti GPU so I installed kmod-driver from rpmfusion. After the installation of Nvidia driver, I rebooted, gdm start and after I perform the login the system freeze. So this problem happened to me with C7.5 and nvidia driver. In my case I need to blacklist i915 module and system works.
Also in this case I tried to boot centos changing grub kernel parameters pressing 'e' in the grub menu and adding "i915.modeset=0 rd.driver.blacklist=i915", booted and system works.
So I tried to make this permanent updating grub configuration adding the previous directives (and removed rhgb and quiet) to /etc/default/grub and run grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/efi/EFI/centos/grub.cfg.
Reboot the system and checked again kernel parameters on grub menu and seen that nothing changed. Booted and freezed.
I checked /boot/efi/EFI/centos/grub.cfg and kernelops has the new directives.
Seems that grub configuration does not take effect.
I made another test inside a VM installed with minimal selection and remove rhgb and quiet parameters and worked fine. The vm is BIOS and my workstation UEFI.
How I can solve this problem? Currently to boot my system I need always to add this params.
Thank you in advance

Hi,
I tried as suggested, parameters will be updated but I get already crash. So I tried to remove also rhgb and quiet and works well.
Would be good to know what is wrong with grub2-mkconfig.
Where start to investigate?
Just to be sure, your subject line says this is on CentOS 8.1, right?
Because IIRC grub2-mkconfig was broken in CentOS 7 despite the head of every grub cfg file telling us "It is automatically generated by grub2-mkconfig using templates".
Really weird that you see the same with CentOS 8.1.

Hi Simon,
I'm on 8.1. I'm searching help to see if this is a bug or error by me but can't find nothing. Currently I used grubby but it does not write any file that I know like /boot/efi/EFI/centos/grub.cfg (I tried to remove and add arg but nothing changed on files), so I don't know where it make update.
I never got a problem using grub2-mkconfig -o file on C7 (last used was 7.5) It always worked as expected to me (for example when I installed nvidia driver using NVIDIA package to blacklist nouveau manually).
