Boot Environment question

jaltman

The update from 23.09.1 to 24.03.b.20240322.1708 went smoothly. The new System> Boot Environments page looks great.

However, I have boot environment named "default" from the 23.09.a.20230907.0600 alpha release which is displayed with a spinner and no option to select it for deletion. Any suggestions on how to remove it?

Thanks.

Hmm, what does bectl list show?

Hmm, it's probably an artifact from an earlier piece of code. That has changed quite a bit during bug solving. Might have to wait for @cmcdonald to confirm.

You may be able to remove it from the command line with bectl.

jaltman

@stephenw10

bectl destroy default

succeeded.

behemyth

We just renamed the top line to default and deleted the second thing when we were testing that a couple weeks ago.

@jaltman Hit this issue today, different BE. Destroy did the trick.

Thanks!
